Dick Tracy. 1990.

Detective Tracy takes on gangster Big Boy Caprice who is trying to unite with other gangsters to take over and run the city.

Haven't seen this since the early 90s on VHS and almost forgot it had existed, with Warren Beatty taking on the role of the comic book character and director who seemed to be a fan and knew how to create the comic characters and and bright and low colours in the background for "The City".

Al Pacino plays the public enemy number one of Tracy and tries his best to pin him with the crimes but can't seem to get him off the streets, Paul Sorvino and James Caan who passed away recently have small roles and even under heavy make-up aren't really recognizable until they start talking as well as many other good actors, but we can all recognise Dustin Hoffman. Never been a fan of Madonna as a actress but in this she is actually decent and do a couple of songs and able to bring some laughs with her character.
