About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a hard-edged 1970s cop thriller with moral gray areas, blunt attitude, and frequent shootouts; Not for you if you dislike graphic violence, nudity, or a mystery that’s easy to guess, like in Marathon Man.
Pros: gritty 70s vibe; punchy action set pieces; sharp one-liners | Cons: mystery feels obvious; uneven pacing; ending may disappoint
