I thought the beginning and a part of the middle was very good, exciting, energetic with Pacino stealing the show but as it approached the middle to end it dragged badly, maybe that was the point with what was going on with Tony but it could have been more captivating rather than just blehhhhhhhh - the end. I mean, you watch the film and think at the end, what was the point of that?
