Pacino and Hopkins play supporting roles and do so well.
I enjoyed this movie, didn't find it by searching Pacino and Hopkins.
The plot is quite original and has a number of surprising twists.
It's a shame that the denouement is so compressed and sloppily presented. There could have been more to it.
Misconduct gets 3.5 * from me
The ending reminded me of Presumed Innocent, based on the book by Scott Turow.
A young woman read the book on the plane.
A fellow passenger and I couldn't help telling her that we had already read it and enjoyed it
of her response.
I have not yet seen the film Presumed Innocent, although I am afraid that the film cannot surpass the book in terms of tension.

2 greats in a bad b-movie. Shame. The haphazard abrupt transitions of scenes make the story even worse than it is. Curious to see the good acting of Hopkins and Pacino in that acting soup of implausibility.

A film with two giants on the bill, but which does not go further than a half-baked result. They don't really know what to do with the flawed script, so they focus on creating atmosphere. It's a shame, because with some craftsmanship there could be a lot more out of this, especially with such actors. Pacino and Hopkins only have one scene together in the entire film.
