7/10
Excellent realism and character
24 March 2004
Harvery Keitel does an excellent job portraying a dirty cop. This dirty cop is not only the main character of this movie but is in fact the only real character of the film. The camera leaves Keitel only once or twice through out the entire movie. As the camera follows Keitel it tells shows his character excellently as a very realistic and trouble cop. It shows his character by following him through one of his ghastly cases. It is a very realistic portrayal of a New York City's cop struggle to stop his wicked ways with a underlining religious theme.

The movie is only 98 minutes long but most likely will bore anyone who requires action and story. The content of the film earned it a NC-17 rating (My first NC-17 rental). The rating is due primarily due to nudity however it is from for a porno. I would recommend to any Harvey Keitel fans. Also recommended to anyone who enjoys character based films and as a strong constitution.
