Brilliant car chase, a few really beatiful shots with odd editing, and Bronson, the main reason for watching this, is as handsom as ever. Lacking (to say the least) in script and character developement, though.

On one hand, it's Charles Bronson. On the other hand, HE RAPES HER TWICE.

Good opening car chase, the rest of the movie is pretty much shit. The last 5 minutes are almost ok. Should have just been called boring city.

An early 70's crime film Starring three great actors of that era ; Charles Bronson , Telly Savalas and Jill Ireland.

Brush up on your lip reading for the finale, and check out the mad racist N.O. mammy-themed nightclub - anyone know if that was real?
