      what is love

      I've always thought it was a little inappropriate to use Michael to define Al. His performance in The Godfather is understandable, but he's far more than the gangster godfather brooding on the edge of Lake Tahoe with his pistol out of the toilet.

      Al's temperament is indeed too suitable for the theater, and too in line with the definition of emptiness, his eyes are always piercing and never able to focus. He could be the perfect Sonny yelling at...

      Nice suspense

      I just watched this film of Pacino which has been stored on the computer for a long time. It was produced in 1989. It is already very good. During the process of watching it, I have been guessing who the murderer is, and I almost think that the beautiful woman is the murderer. Then I met Pa. Sinoe was ready to be reconciled (a bad guess), and the ending was something most people could not think of. If it were indeed carried out according to my guess, the director would not be of any level....

      To watch a movie every year

      This is a movie that I will come out to watch every once in a while. Because of Al Pacino’s acting skills and unexpected plot, horror and funny, I thought that Al Pacino was going to bed with each other, and suddenly realized that the other party might be the murderer. I am amused when I have that kind of horrified expression.

      There is also the stage of interviewing blind dates in restaurants, trying to catch a female killer, embarrassing, funny, and exhausted, just like...

      Good heroine?

      The heroine is a surprise. The horror part of the plot is purely forced and far-fetched. I was watching a DVD, and it was stuck in the middle, and I was looking for Youku video to get it all. But the love part is passionate, purely starring for the heroine. Especially in the professional wear selling shoes, it is too much for the passionate dress the night before. I don't know that there was no electricity in the restaurant at that time, and I took the initiative to strike up a conversation...

      Al Pacino is a lover

      "Midnight Fright." 7 points. Al Pacino starred in 1989. I must have encountered a film shortage, and as usual, I didn't want to make a show, so I picked a lot of old films, so I went through them one after another. I read the book two days ago and I was sad. I felt that people could write such good words, and I still refused to admit defeat. Seeing that I can't catch up. Actors like Al Pacino will surely shine, and sooner or later, he was born on stage and under the spotlight, both early and...

      Papa's acting is good. You can act a man with passion, especially those eyes are so expressive. I especially like the part where he gets angry. A gentle but stubborn old man. Ha...

      I don't think the heroine has any fatal temptation and surprise, and I really don't think she is like a killer. Al Pacino haunts people like a gangster, especially at the end, the heroine should have kicked him away. I didn't expect to buy him coffee with a smile after being coaxed a few times. This forced happy ending is really a letdown. i can't...

    Evaluation action

    This is a suspenseful drama about urban eroticism. The beginning of the film truly reproduces the process of the victim's killing, full of suspense, and then in the laying out of the story, romance and horror coexist, sweetness and terror coexist, but the final result is shocking and chanting surprise. (Sina Entertainment Review) 
    It is no longer new to add erotic elements to police and criminal films, but Pacino has rendered the...

    • [last lines]

      Helen Cruger: Do you still drink coffee?

      Det. Frank Keller: Like it's going out of style.

      Helen Cruger: C'mon, I'll buy you a cup.

    • Frank Keller Sr.: [a poem by Frank's mother written in 1934 while she was in high school] I live alone within myself, like a hut within the woods; I keep my heart high upon the shelf, barren of other goods; I need another's arms to reach for it, and place it where it belongs. I need another's touch and smile, to fill my hut with songs.

    • Det. Frank Keller: Last time, she walked. Maybe this time I can get prints.

      Det. Sherman: Yeah right. What are ya gonna do, Frank? Send your dick to the lab? Man, that'll be a hell of a story in court. "Well, Your Honor, first I whipped it out, then she whipped it out, if you know what I mean."
