Review of Scavenger Hunt (1979) by Erg1008 — 23 Aug 2010
People in a small working class town, friend gets married, go to Vietnam, get capture, Russian roulette, escape, Two go back home, one doesn't.
It takes a while to get going but builds the characters up & you get a feel of where these people are from & who they are.
Brutal in parts (the capture scene is very intense) but also some excellent cinematography in the hunting parts.
Really strong cast & I'd say one of De Niro's best films.
Slightly long but a very good film indeed.
