The story of Frank Serpico (Pacino), an honest NY cop who gets paired with lazy, uncaring partners and discovers that there's almost as much crime within the system as there is outside of it. It's a slow-burning drama caked in city grime. With very little music — there's only fourteen minutes of score in total — the realism can be a little overpowering but sometimes the harsh truths need that kind of environment to really make an impact.
