  • @classiclife7204
    @classiclife7204 Месяц назад

    The movie is easier to understand when you realize it's a clever rewrite of Othello by Shakespeare: just as Iago manipulates Othello and drives him to insane jealousy and madness, so Gere does the same to Garcia. There's even a scene in the old play where Othello scolds his innocent wife in front of everybody, though at least the Moor doesn't HIT her, so there's that. The movie has little to do with cops - dirty or clean - per se, and has everything to do with male insecurities.

  • @bazzoman510

    Underrated cop movie, Gere is terrifying. Gere plays a similar part in Brooklyn’s Finest.

    I was just was watching this movie Last Night. I was mad with Andy Garcia Character allowing Peck to get in his head. The restaurant scene when he flipped out and slapped his wife, I wished he would've kept it playa. It would've been dope if he would've handed her the ring told her it's over then walk out the restaurant but I guess they had to add the theatrics with the slap and outburst lol 🤣🤣🤣.

    Very entertaining movie. My nitpick: Peck can beat up an IAD office at work with no consequences…also he shoots another IAD officer after committing a double murder. Shouldn’t there be a massive manhunt?
