Corrupt cop thriller about masculinity and fertility, that demands attention despite its length mainly thanks to the quality of the performances. Mike Figgis’ style is simple and efficient, with the synthy steel drum score, composed partially by himself, keeping up the tension you’re already feeling (if you’re a man) from the invocation of sexual selection insecurity. Richard Gere is a right bastard. Andy Garcia does more by doing less. Laurie Metcalf likewise. Pretty decent.
