many people here are raving about this movie. i personally don't agree that this is the "greatest" or "golden". but it is a fine film with excellent cast, great directing and a nice noir feel giving the excellent plot a good lift making it memorable

Of course Kevin Spacey was great in this film, as well as Russel Crowe. But let's not forget Guy Pearce. I thought he was really good in this film.
