SERPICO (Released to Theaters USA 1973)

 

Ben Meyers’ Rating: 4.1|5.0 Starsìììì 

Serpico—true, poignant story—relies on solid camerawork and writing to build the film. Prosecuting officials for illegal activity is difficult as this movie illustrates well. This film works for adult audiences and is a worthy watch. No lack of quality here. It earns its watch.
