I bought this movie for $5.00 because I forgot how truly awful it was. I don't understand what the writer or director were doing. There was not one thing believable about this movie. First, if one is fired for corruption, then one does not get transferred to the Fire Department. 2, one also does not go back to the police department as a lieutenant. Further, one does not have shoulder length hair in either the Fire of Police Department. The most annoying character in the movie was Alan Rickman, who is supposed to be a computer wiz (it must be NEC). He never removes the faggy neck wrap. And it must have Lotus Agenda (which was never used). When Kevin Kline comes into the mystery, there have been 11 homicides. One would think the NYPD would have a task force on it, but there is no sign of that. Also, a mere Captain does not barge into the office of the Mayor and make threats. ( I enjoyed the Rod Steiger over the top performance, the only decent one in the movie.) See this at your peril.

I agree with all of the above comments, both good and bad. I taped it just to see Marg Helenbarger, the chick on CSI. She is really very beautiful, in a sort of hard, blonde way. Mostly, though, I fast forwarded thru most of it. I enjoyed the Cuban chick, Vivian, and wished she was in more of the movie. What I didn't like most was the sense of helplessness that the rich widow had. She should have killed the mob guy much sooner.
