Intense movie, and pretty accurate historically according to an analysis done by the Boston Globe. Mark Walberg's character was a composite, but it worked well. 4.5 out of 5 stars. Excellent movie.

Agreed, very intense. Two scripts were merged to create the script for this film. They combined a documentary type script with a thriller. I thought it worked well.

Loved this movie. The shootout scene on the residential street was awesome!
