Internal Affairs

★★★★ THRILLER Richard Gere’s dazzling performance as a very crooked cop fires this brilliant and flashy thriller. Andy Garcia is also at his best as the newcomer to Internal Affairs, whose examination of one corrupt policeman, a former buddy, leads him to an obsession with the buddy’s boss (Gere). Using his own inimitable style, British director Mike Figgis takes what could have been a straightforward action thriller and creates something far greater.
