Review of Payday (1973) by Blake L — 30 Jan 2009
Rip Torn is fucking amazing in this flick. I have always appreciated him, but felt it was sad that most people will remember him for Men in Black and Dodgeball (which he was funny in, but, still..) because you see him in a performance like this.
The script is pretty interesting but takes some dumb, movie cliche turns that went against it's day in the life type story line. I could have watched Rip Torn talk to people all day, but they had to get a plot going and the co-stars are bad at best.
The thing that saved this movie was the ending which I loved and wondered why the middle of the movie went so wrong.
