Point Blank
Apr. 9th, 2007 12:11 amDespite having Lee Marvin in it, I was fairly let down by this movie. Even ignoring how its decidely less dark than the remake Payback it had several lengthy sequences that were totally pointless. Travel montages, with the sound of Lee Marvin walking in a hallway overlaid on them. A flashback to every violent scene in the movie at about the 3/4ths point. I guess I'll just have to keep waiting for the director's cut of Payback that is supposed to make Parker even more amoral. Or maybe just track down some Richard Stark and check out the original source material...
