DVD Reviews of Sea of Love
DVD Review: Pacino At His Best
Summary: 4 Stars
Four years after the dismal failure of "Revolution" in 1985 Al Pacino made a remarkable comeback with SEA OF LOVE. Pacino again plays his charcter with such raw intesity and creditbility it's no wonder he remains one of the elite in Hollywood. Pacino plays a NYC cop who's burnt out both mentally & professinaly when he investigates what could be a femaile serial killer killing men who take out personal dating ads shot in the back of the head in bed. as the story delvops pacino falls for the prime suspect Played by Ellen Barkin. The passion scenes between pacino and barkin are intense as is the storyline as it builds and comes to an explosive climax. The supporting cast in the film is great especally John Goodman who plays Pacino's partner is often quite funny in scenes of the film. An enjoyable little thriller.

Description of Sea of Love
After a career slump that plagued him through most of the 1980s, Al Pacino made a stellar comeback in this taut 1989 thriller, playing a weary New York police detective who falls in love with the woman (Ellen Barkin) who is the prime suspect in the murder case he's investigating. Expertly written by Richard Price and directed by Harold Becker, the story is designed to keep its central characters (and the viewer) in a state of constant suspicion and arousal--an emotional combination that sends dangerous sparks flying between Pacino and Barkin. Their chemistry is intense, and their love scenes are some of the hottest of any movie of its decade. But Sea of Love is not merely concerned with cheap titillation. It's a riveting whodunit with scenes of nail-biting suspense and memorable dialogue that make it as interesting to listen to as it is to watch. Barkin had made a similarly sexy impression in The Big Easy, and here she gives one of the best performances of her underrated career, matching Pacino's excellence scene for scene. The ending's a bit of a letdown because the murder solution comes somewhat out of the blue, but it's the acting and suspense that you'll remember most--qualities that make Sea of Love one of the best films of its kind. --Jeff ShannonAfter a career slump that plagued him through most of the 1980s, Al Pacino made a stellar comeback in this taut 1989 thriller, playing a weary New York police detective who falls in love with the woman (Ellen Barkin) who is the prime suspect in the murder case he's investigating.
