Movie Review
Despite the talent of Wesley Snipes and Robert DeNiro, The Fan's extreme overuse of swearing is a turnoff. It does not help that the main character is Gil (DeNiro), who is not much fun to watch as he gets crazier and crazier. The ending is a little tense but overall, the movie is pretty boring.
