Review of Point Blank (1967) by Martin T — 04 Nov 2009
Solid revenge thriller with couple of interesting quirks. There's the way Boorman uses flashbacks, perhaps illustrating the empty routine of Walker's life and his single-minded quest. Then there's the number of people who die by Walker's hand (count 'em).
And the ending is ambiguous enough to leave you thinking. It's all got a slightly European flavor to it, definitely some Antonioni in there. A couple of the scenes scream 1967, but the datedness is more amusing than distracting.
