Carlito's Way

An excellent gangster film that's not quite at the level of the genre's classics. Top-notch acting all around. My grade: B+

Synopsis: Story about the Puerto Rican Mafia during the 1970s. An ex-con tries to retire from his life of crime but old ties seem to make it impossible. (via Yahoo)

Director: Brian De Palma (The Untouchables)
Writer: David Koepp (Jurassic Park) based on the novel by Edwin Torres
Stars: Al Pacino (Scarface), Sean Penn (Mystic River), Penelope Ann Miller (Kindergarten Cop), John Leguizamo (Summer of Sam), Luis Guzman (Confidence), Viggo Mortensen (The Lord of the Rings)
