Title: what's the big deal?
Review: i found this to be one of the most boring films of 1999. russell crowe, as usual, completely eclipses everyone else who's onscreen at the same time, but al pacino just screams and claws at the scenery for 2 hours. it's always great to see christopher plummer and he's wonderfully low-key, but the movie overall is a yawner....i just don't see what everyone was so excited about.
Is the review positive or negative?
