Excellent, a Must See

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Really even though as one reviewer says that the terrorists despite being what they were, despite doing wrong and were in need of being brought to justice. Came off with sympathy and had families that they wanted to feed. Even though you weren't suppose to sympathize with them.It is the arrogant attitude of the feds that ruined the movie for it seems people like m.Arkin's arrogant agent, as all federal agents that Hollywood makes them out to be butted heads with state cop Turturro. As he threatened to arrest Turturro but Arkin was really interfering into not letting Turuturro do his job.Even though it started out with them butting heads, Arkin realized he needed the state cop's help and in the end, they worked out well. As Turturro knows the place and if they had an agent that was from there, it might had helped despite Arkin's character being from Boston.Really it proved it was the typical cops vs feds stuff. Not good but not bad.

i know tommy manning personally from many years ago. Mr. Ferrer was not like tommy at all. i think he did a pretty good job at portraying him though but, it was not real to me because i knew him. the movie was slow and undramatic. Mr. Manning is still of the same mindset that he was back in the days of committing the crimes. he is a prisoner at leavenworth and will remain there for a long time. he will have a hearing for parole in the year 2010. i personally do not think that he will get parole due to his unchanged attitude. although i liked him way back in the 60's, he hasn't learned that violence is not the answer. i would like to see the movie redone with a little more drama.

It's a TV movie,you should expect that there aren't going to be mind-blowing special effects.And, to be honest, this movie is a bit weird in that the cops are relentlessly hunting "good bad guys." The "terrorists" are a freedom front that wants to destroy the means of production of certain companies for political reasons, but they try to make sure no one gets hurt (which, of course, backfires). So it's hard to "root for" the cops because the movie makes you sympathize with the terrorists and their families: ordinary people in almost every sense.Arkin and Turturo provide good performances...Stephen Root (also of Newsradio) is very good in a much different role than people are used to seeing him in. Miguel Ferrer is decent.

This movie was on one of those premium channels, the kind you have to pay extra for. The storyline read real good. After watching it for about 10 minutes it looked really cheaply made. Sure enough, this was nothing more than a TV Movie passed along as a real movie. The plot I have seen before many times in better movies. There was absolutely no chemistry between any of the actors who looked as though they had just read their lines just before walking on the set.
