Review of Flashpoint (1984) by Senor C — 05 Dec 2011
Growing up I used to get excited as shit whenever they had a free Super Channel weekend. What that is was the Canadian pay TV channel for free for about 2 & a half day. I used to highlight the TV guild for all the movies that I wanted to see.
This is where I originally saw Flashpoint. It's been @ least 25 years since Ive seen & this movies is still barely talked about. That's too bad because it's fucking good. I think that it falls victim like many of Treat Williams movies that they suffer box office death only to try to find a life on pay TV.
Williams has never been a great box office draw that Im surprised that he still has a career after all these years. Flashpoint is another under appreciated film of his. In fact it's another great film for Kris Kristofferson.
These 2 actors don't get the respect the rightly deserve. Nobody in this film does. Hell Kurtwood Smith is a fantastic son of a bitch here & nobody made note of his career until he was cast as Red Forman in That 70's Show.
