Certification18 Our Rating
Pacino is superb as the oddball cop Frank Serpico, an idealist cop who stood out not just because of his odd dress sense, but because of his refusal to take bribes, something which made him very dangerous to his thieving corrupt workmates. A series of narrative twists make this excellent truth-based drama gripping viewing. A forerunner for the even better 'Prince of the City'.
