One of today's black cinema, this is almost as difficult as it gets.
Rough characters, violence and rough language everyone understands this rough re-make of 1967
the film "Point Blank", which starred Lee Marvin.
Mel Gibson is the "good guy" here, taking the role of Marvin, but I have to put between
quotes, because he is not really "good", only a thief trying to
get her back $ 70000 that was stolen from him by her partner and
ex-wife of a former heist. The climbs the ladder, little man at the top
chief, to finally get their money.
Gibson gets beaten on several occasions and even tortured one of the toes
calculation scene. Women are looking hard, rough and unappealing. I
as did the metallic-blue in here, making an interesting
visual film. However, the city scenes are bleak, to Batman.
Despite this, I found the movie is still good enough to see
several times. Most people like a simple revenge story that this is really,
and there is dark humor here, too. The other characters are interesting
, notably played by William Devane.
Also liked the story of Gibson, conducted in 1940-style black cinema. The worst
here in person was the sadistic "Val Resnick (Gregg Henry). The
was so bad, was cartoon-ish, someone so bad that belonged to one such
Batman or Spiderman or Hellboy flicks.
Easily one of the best Gibson, and one of the best in his class sees him
. Tribute to black cinema, combined with Gibson
usual language in cheekness, and some support functions fabulous taste of
Coburn, Kristofferson, Liu, and Devane. Henry makes a Stirling
here in front of Gibson. Liu is simply wonderful in a role - perhaps worrying
- seems to be made for it!
think that Porter's single, non-nonsense determination to achieve what he sees as
justice itself achieves a chord, and you are rooting for him
right until the end. This film rarely lets up in intensity, and
better, and he agreed. It will make you laugh and cringe at the same time
, but you do not want to take your eyes off the screen for one second.
It looks good, feels good, and oozes class. Definitely a must-see.
