Review:

Someone forgot to tell the designers of this poster that black, white and red were out. This poster is lifeless, boring and forgettable.

• Trailer: C

Review:

I can't imagine this film being more than rudimentary in execution. It bears an uncanny resemblance stylistically to past Al Pacino efforts. Here Pacino plays a morally ambiguous character persecuted by a man he has locked away. Not too far removed from most of his other characters, some officially evil and some questionably good. But this isn't likely to be one of his best.

Oscar Prospects:

I don't see an April film of "thriller" quality making it to the nominations circle.
