Writers: Gerald Petievich, William Friedkin
Cast: William Petersen, Willem Dafoe, John Pankow, John Turturro
A fearless secret service agent is hellbent on bringing down a counterfeiter, who killed his partner, by any means.
As the opening credits rolls on you are reminded of where Nicolas Winding Refn's 'Drive' was coming from with its font and thumping music. This film is representative of films from the 80s with its over the top style and cheesiness, but in a good way. In terms of how L.A is represented and its soundtracks it is similar to Drive but not in terms of the treatment. It is the other end of the axis. Very fun film to watch with the trademark Friedkin car chase also in there.
Rating: 4.5/5
