Much to admire - I wonder if it's been over praised. Gene Hackman is excellent as the surveillance man who gets in over his head. It has a sweaty aura of paranoia but isn't as good as something like The Parallax View.
The story has one decent twist - they're not victims they're protagonists. It has a superb support cast including John Cazale, Teri Garr, Allen Garfield, Harrison Ford (very spooky), Robert Duvall, Frederic Forrest, Cindy Williams. Excellent music and photography and of course sound.
Maybe too long?
