that's like asking catholics if they know the pope.
with over 2600 members, you can be sure at least someone has seen it
altough on the surface it's just another police-thriller, but once you have an allstar cast starring Jon Voight, Val Kilmer, Mykelti Williamson, Ashley Judd, Hank Azaria and a young Natalie Portman, it's realy good. Put in a director like Michael Mann, and it becomes a 3 hour epic about Los Angeles crime. The delightfull finishing touch by casting Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino who go head to head for the first time, made this cop-movie an Oscar nominee!!!
What's more to say after that?
By the way, neither Pacino nor DeNiro 'won' the massive clash of giants, not in my opinion at least, I can still not pick the better actor in this film.
