User Review
More than the sum of its parts1fatts 10/28/2007 
  There are reasons this film should not work. It does not transfer well from its theatrical origins: there are "speeches" that are too clearly "speeches"; too many characters are stereotypical "New York menagerie of mankind." The ending is cornball by anyone's standards.
And yet the film DOES work, by and large. Credit to a really good cast and a more quiet control of tone and pacing than one generally expects from Garry Marshall. True, Michelle Pfeiffer is too pretty for the part, but she projects a quiet, sad emptiness which is convincing, even moving, and forms the center of the piece. And, true, Al Pacino can't quite pull off an optimistic innocent, but he is genuinely likable, and you pull for him.
We are ready to extend our suspension of disbelief a little farther than we might usually do because these are characters we care for, people who have not had an easy time of it and could use a break; and we are willing to gloss over the sit-com slickness of some of it to allow them the break. We would really like them to have a shot at doing better.
. . . and it helps if you like Clair de lune.

  New York City detectives Rooster (Al Pacino) and Turk (Robert De Niro) are on the trail of a serial killer who leaves poems justifying his actions at the scene of the crimes.

Even Turk's girlfriend Detective Karen Corelli (Carla Gugino) begins to question his actions–especially after the gun that Turk planted in the acquitted man's apartment appears to have a connection with the guns left at the scenes by the serial killer they are pursuing.
