Movie Haiku:One of Sean Penn’s best, most sympathetic roles to date, as a guy who returns to the violent underworld of his old Irish-American gang in Hell’s Kitchen. Robin Wright plays his ex-girlfriend. In their first pairing, they’re as intense as Bogie first meeting Bacall. Gary Oldman provides the terror.
