Pointless investigation and horrible characters


When you back up and take a hard look that the film the whole investigation is pointless with links to organized crime, corruption and the bishop's sexual abuse of miners. In the end, it had nothing to do with Roy killing the Arch Bishop. What a waste, except for a good performance by Norton.

Second ALL and I do mean all the characters are smug, cynical, nasty, rude and just plain vulgar. Why is that? Is this how all the people in Chicago are? It really turned me off. Especially Lauren Linney. She just rubbed me wrong with her up tight attitude.

Now the real question is, how could I miss the "abuse of miners" you speak of!
Finally a theme worth looking into, and I probably slept through it. I wonder, what they were mining in Chicago though. O_o

On a serious note, Lauren's character was in fact a very fragile woman under her tough facade. I liked the character a lot, her acting was great.
