Robert Downey Jr.'s best..., 27 April 2000
9/10
Author: timmyhollywood

I nearly lost my emotional senses in the gut-wrenching scene of Downy Jr.'s untimely death. The strength of this supposed subplot was so palpable that, for me, it was just as important to the film as the main yarn about Snipes's infidelity. Excellent. 9
