Cruising
never thought I’d see Al Pacino tied up to a bed in bondage gear but here we are..
it’s been a while since I’d watched an Al Pacino movie, I do love him, but I’m not sure I love this one. It has such an interesting premise, a police officer goes undercover in the gay leather/BDSM scene to catch a serial killer. On paper, that’s right up my alley but it never really clicked for me. the editing feels off, it gets confusing here and there, even surprisingly boring at times. I didn’t hate it, but I definitely didn’t love it, and I really wanted to love it..
out of the 12 Al Pacino movies I’ve seen this year, this is one of my least favorites. at least it did remind me of Serpico, so I’ll give it that !!
