Ratings and reviews

I had forgotten what a good actor Will Peterson is; his rendition of Will Graham is excellent. The supporting cast delivers a fine performance as well. The overall story is engaging, fast-paste, and—of course—bone-chilling.

Love this film. Brian Cox's role as Dr. Lektor is more menacing and dangerous than Anthony Hopkins version. A brilliant gem from 1986 as well as 1985's To Live And Die in L.A.

Im a true Michael Mann fan! Miami Vice , The Keep, Man Hunter,etc ....Tangerine Dream soundtracks is perfection in all of his movies.
