🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film knows its strengths and plays to them honestly. Visual style and pacing are in sync; you never feel you're watching different films stitched together.

Worth watching for the solidly executed sequences and overall energy. The plot doesn't reach for revelation — but it doesn't get in the way.

For those who want to switch off and get an adrenaline dose without complications.

Director: Walter Hill
