This is not a remake of John Boorman and outside supply
1967 Point Blank, is the structure differs from the 67 film, and although the point
Blank is a dark psychological thriller that is top of trees,
this movie really should be seen as a filming from different Donald E.
Westlake's novel The Hunter. Mel Gibson plays hard as nails thief
Porter, which is double cross, shot, and then left for dead. We then
Adopted in a dark journey as Porter states to recover that $ 70000
They shot and nearly killed.
The film relies solely on Mel Gibson to carry the threat and sympathy
vengeful Porter, and it is with great credit that achieves
Achieving both quality aplomb. The violence and dark humor
Preocupante keep the trip well above the interests and one
scene of the film cements himself as a major revenge based
Thriller. Against the backdrop of a series of characters worthy of support, is a
More mark on the director Brian Helgeland short run CV, but this
Individual viewer feels that was underused William Devane as his personality was hinting
diabolical classic, but it's a minor complaint
because it is a tough and cheeky thriller that deserves to
Less 8 / 10 through me.
If you do not like violence, then you do not see this movie. If you are
Open to the great storytelling and gritty dialogue, this is the movie for
you. In some ways superior to remake and just because the subject. Some
He hated this movie just because of what it was, and that's a shame
For them that they can not enjoy a movie that neither glorifies nor
Trashes the bottom of life. In a strange way, the main character
Porter (played this time by Mel Gibson, which is as good as Lee Marvin.
Nobody can be better than Marvin in this kind of role) is a type of
Decency their own code even though it is more than a little twisted.
After all, in a world inhabited by criminals, changing rules
Significantly and therefore once they have to adapt or find a way out. Porter
Not so much in the two versions.
No sense in rehashing the plot. Suffice it to say that this is a Thief
that burnt and it wants to reach him and even
the way. In addition, the plot has been described by many reviewers
better than me.
It is always difficult for me at a rate film version of another. It is almost impossible not want
(in my mind at least) and to combine
actors in the roles. James Coburn played the same part as well as
Carroll O'Connor in the original and which are both so perfect while also
Different. After all, they are both accomplished actors.
And maybe I could have done without much of the S & M and B & D
scenes in the new version, but I chalk that up to the changes in the world since the 1960
.
Long before there was a Quentin Tarrantino, there was great directors
As Don Siegel, Sam Peckinpah and Sam Fuller lasting
as nails and not just some fans who knew how to use the best These guys all
brilliant touches, and add a few sick jokes. But
Director / writer Brain Helgeland does spectacularly well with the
material, while the new cast shines for his role almost as if
They were not acting, but living the parties. And that goes until
underestimated David Paymer as a pathetic hustler (
that could easily have been played in the past by Elisha Cook Jr. as it did with Wilmer
the role of "The Maltese Falcon" Paymer makes it even more
Humor.) is difficult to root for people so lacking in morals, but
Director, writer and actors manage extraordinarily well. Both
"Payback" and "Point Blank" are instant classics to be
Considered as such. And God bless the memory of Lee Marvin and John
Vernon (in the original "Point Blank" version.) Such fine
Thespians will be sorely missed. Fortunately, with the memory of
Celuloide and other media to be enjoyed by many more audiences.
Could have guessed I love these two films.
