Review of La Orca (1976) by Galaxy Quest P — 10 Oct 2012
A great movie, the storyline is very good, kind of a scattered feel but the story itself is simple and straight forward. The action was good and did not exceed and go over the top, it was straightforward and gave to the story in the exact way needed.
The scenes were good, with the only thing iffy moment was when Pitt (Mickey) got punched in the air and he hovered like he was sleeping being held up by wires. Never the less Guy Ritchie did a great job in directing, it was well written and carried out.
The screenplay was great with amazing dialogue with the heavy British accent element only contributing to the allure of the story. Brad Pitt did an amazing job as a guy who you couldn't understand and yet still get to love his character and grow a connection to him.
Statham (Turkish) did a great job in his role while being more of a talker and peaceful rather than always bent on confrontation, he looked for the smart way out. The rest of the cast sported a lot of big and well-known names and really did excellent work in bringing specific individual elements to the on-screen personas.
Always an enjoyable watch, and has you quoting the lines days later.
