It definitely wasn't the best movie ever, but I actually liked that about rampart, and thought it suited the film overall. It was definitely a character film, and I thought it was fairly appropriate to his character, town and general situation that he went through hell only to essentially end up where he started. A sense of futility seemed to really be central throughout the film, so I guess having a kind of anti-climactic ending is necessary... Of course I may be making an excuse for bad filmmaking, but I didn't think the eventual ending was innapropriate...
Anyway, definitely not best film of the year or anything, but I liked the character and acting enough to recomend it
edit: I do tend to really like character-based films/tv shows too, so if you don't like that then Rampart definitely won't be interesting, that's for sure.
