Albino Alligator - A Film Review





I watched Albino Alligator on TV, and really liked it a lot. I enjoy gritty crime dramas with a fantastic cast of character actors, and this was right up my alley. It was directed by Kevin Spacey, and is about three thieves who take a bar hostage when cornered by the police. I got into the dramatic tension quickly, and I liked how the movie felt more like a play, especially with the movie mostly being set in one place with a lot of anger, fear, and frustrations rising. The movie had an awesome cast: Matt Dillon, Gary Sinise, William Finchter, Faye Dunaway, Joe Mantegna, John Spencer, Viggo Mortensen, and M. Emmet Walsh. The movie could have been better in its third act with some re-writing and explanation for a few characters, but for the first two-thirds, I thought it was really good.
