The mysterious Foucard is revealed as a wanted fugitive

Biggest Swing

The film recovers from its talky middle section when Foucard's true identity is revealed, providing the plot twist that energizes the final act.

Albino Alligator starts promisingly with an effective heist setup and strong ensemble performances, but gets bogged down in overly articulate dialogue during the middle hostage negotiations. The film recovers with clever plot reveals and a powerful climax, though most reviewers found it a competent but forgettable theatrical exercise.
