Review of Point Blank (1967) by Netflic — 03 Aug 2011

The movie is done well, within limits of it's genre. Plenty of fights, running, shooting, blood, etc.

Keeps the audience tense till the very end. I was expecting something better than that: some class, some elegance which sometimes come from French action movies, 'La Femme Nikita', for example.. Maybe I want too much. But again, every cliché of action movie is here: the villains and the heroes; the hero appears at the very last moment (how?!); the hero (un-trained) survives serious beating from professionals; and, of course, happy ending. I am sure I will forget about this movie sooner than finishing typing this little piece...
