1225.0. "Donnie Brasco" by POLAR::TYSICK (Chasing the tail of Dogma) Mon Mar 10 1997 12:11

    	I enjoyed this flick right up until the ending.  I thought to
    myself, what a dull way to end this one.  Then I realized the story was
    based on a true one.  I guess I was just expecting the typical
    "Hollywood" ending?
    
    	Al Pacino should win something for this one.  Even though it could
    be argued that he was type cast in this role.  Johnny Depp does a great
    job as well.  After seeing the movie, you realize the sacrafices an
    undercover agent makes to get the job done.  The reward isn't worth the
    price they pay.
    
    	All in all a solid movie.  3.5 outta 5

    good movie!
