classic bronson doing what he does best; kicking ass
while he was still making movies for cannon films which is no longer in existence, bronson took the lead in this cop thriller from the early eighties. he stars as jack murphy a worn and beaten down cop who has been framed for the murder of his wife who left him to become a stripper in a sleazy bar. while on the run from the mob as well, and trying to clear his name, he is handcuffed to a mouthy petty thief named arabella mcgee. considering it is kathleen whilhoite’s first starring role in a feature (she plays arabella) she turned in a great and funny performance. she has a mouth like a trucker but has some very creative and imaginative ways of telling people off who displease her ie. snot-licking donkey fart among other things. while she is more than half of bronson’s age the writers were trying to build some kind of weird sexual tension between the two and it clearly wasn’t working. it came off more creepy and awkward than anything else. while bronson’s later movies won’t win any awards it will keep you entertained.
Surprisingly Good 80s Bronson B Movie *** out of *****
Another Charles Bronson Film from the 80’s produced by Golan/Globus’ Cannon Group – A Studio notorious throughout the 80s for making pretty trashy Films on a low budget starring Chuck Norris, Bronson or bigger stars out of work, so my expectations were very low….I have to say I was pleasantly surprised, I know it’s not going to win any awards but for what is, it’s pretty good.
Bronson plays Det. Jack Murphy a Middle aged cop with relationship and drink problems whose stripper Ex-Wife and his various Friends are being bumped off by someone – The Police force thinks it’s him and so he’s arrested and stuck in jail with a young carjacker Arabella Mcgee (Kathleen Wilhoite) who tried to steal his car earlier on – So to clear his name and find out whose killing his buddies and why – he breaks out of Prison still handcuffed to the initially reluctant Arabella.
The Script is neither here nor there in ‘Cannon Films’ although the Insults Aimed at Murphy from Arabella throughout border on ridiculous and are probably the oddest ever filmed.
There’s plenty of action and is directed well from the Director of ‘Cape Fear’ & ‘Guns of Navarone’ J.Lee Thompson, who made quite a few films with Bronson.
All in All not great, but far better than you would expect.
