Frank Serpico is an idealistic New York City cop who refuses to take bribes, unlike the rest of the force. His actions get Frank shunned by the other officers, and often placed in dangerous situations by his partners. When his superiors ignore Frank's accusations of corruption, he decides to go public with the allegations. Although this causes the Knapp Commission to investigate his claims, Frank has also placed a target on himself.

Sure, The Godfather made Al Pacino a star, but Serpico kept him one.

My father is a fan of Al Pacino and he always told me about a film where he was in called Serpico. I already knew the story of the film. It was about a policeman, Frank Serpico, who were the only honest man of his division, he believed in justice but all of the others around him were corrupt. He was the only one who doesn't accepted any kind of bribes, he not let himself take by greed and he had the courage to denounce the situation even knowing that everyone would turn against him. Sounds like a great story, but even with my dad always recommending me this film I don't know what took me so long to see it but I'm glad I finally did. Al Pacino is one of the greatest actors in the history of cinema no doubt, and in here his work doesn't surprise because he is amazing, once again. Serpico is such an interesting and complex character and Pacino is able to play him in such a cool and smooth way. This story is very believable, and told in a very real way with the perfect atmosphere of the 70's, afterall it's based on the true story of Frank Serpico. Serpico is a fantastic film due to the fantastic direction of Sidney Lumet.

A uniquely inspirational, and often frustrating film, about a man's fight for justice. Incredible performance from Pacino.
