Let's be short: An okay movie. It is just a shame that Hollywood feels the need to add lame one-liners and silly sight gags (THE CAT REACTS TO SEX ON TV!!??), which undermine the seriousness of the subject and the story. Then there are some faults I can't quite comprehend, like the mike hanging on the top of the screen when Smith tries to contact Tom Sizemore when Will's life is starting to fall apart. The plot itself has some inconsistencies, but a close examination will only lead to the perhaps total destruction of the movie's credibility.
Don't expect too much, enjoy Gene Hackman's older version of the man he played in the Conversation, and the references to that film and you'll have a good time, though it has to be said that it could have been a much better film if some effort was put into it.
