Based upon a real-life story that happened in the early seventies in which the Chase Manhattan Bank in Flatbush, Brooklyn, was held siege by a gay bank robber determined to steal enough money for his male lover to undergo a sex change operation. On a hot summer afternoon, the First Savings Bank of Brooklyn is held up by Sonny and Sal, two down-and-out characters. Although the bank manager and female tellers agree not to interfere with the robbery, Sonny finds that there's actually nothing much to steal, as most of the cash has been picked up for the day. Sonny then gets an unexpected phone ca... ll from Police Captain Moretti, who tells him the place is surrounded by the city's entire police force. Having few options under the circumstances, Sonny nervously bargains with Moretti, demanding safe escort to the airport and a plane out of the country in return for the bank employees' safety.

Bank robbery goes a bit wrong, pacino becomes an anti-hero i won't say any more just watch it!!!
Dog Day Afternoon
This film is the 'mostly true' story of Sonny Wortzik (in real life his name was John Wojtowicz), a married man who tries to rob a bank in order to pay for his male lovers sex change operation. If you're an Al Pacino fan you're in for a real treat -- this is certainly among his finest performances.
'Dog Day Afternoon' is a classic crime movie with some great comic moments in there as well. The fact that Sonny is gay isn't a huge issue in the film. He's just a man who's robbing a bank, and the film shows that his intentions or his sexuality aren't really as important as the media make them seem. On the whole he's portrayed as a sympathetic ch...

At first sight, a film with large, self-conscious ambitions where a bank siege (the film is based on a real incident...
Dog Day Afternoon was the second collaboration between director Sydney Lumet and Al Pacino, coming two years after Serpico, and it racked up an array of firsts. This was the first mainstream American film to deal with transgender issues without sniggering behind its hand. It was the first film to deal with a televised hold-up, and it was among the first films to cast a major lead actor as explicitly bisexual, even if the proposed kiss between Pacino and John Cazale never quite came about.
The story, though based on real events, has the lurid quality of something cooked up by Paul Morrissey for Joe Dallesandro in Flesh, Trash or Heat. But Lumet, ...

it had everything, i laughed, cried and felt sorry for the robbers, brilliant true story and now has become my favorite al pacino movie ever, and ive seen pretty much all of em
Great 70's movie and an interesting true story. Sidney Lumet did an excellent job directing, keeping it as realistic as possible and focusing solely on the characters, nothing was melodramatic or over the top. It's not your typical bank robbery film. Pacino was brilliant, as was the rest of the cast.
This film really shows that a relatively small cast and budget are sometimes a help not a hindrance. The film could have been very over the top with the subject matter but i loved the way it told an interesting story in a very realistic way. The story itself is brilliant and the character which Al Pacino plays is the real lynch pin of the film. Definitely one of the most interesting film characters ever. Although he is a criminal and obviously a bad man i couldnt help but feel for him and wanted him to succeed in the end. This was mainly down to Pacino's performance. The way the story moved along at quite a pace was a big bonus and the whole film had a real news report feel to it. This helped me get engrossed in the story and kept me glued right until the end. A real classic film with an anti-establishment under current that will really get you rooting for the bad guy, but in a good way. Absolute classic. 5/5
