Point Blank Reviews

An almost experimental discourse on crime, punishment and revenge brilliantly shot by Philip H. Lathrop.

An intriguing, disorientating 60s artefact.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 28, 2013

A movie to saviour again and again on the biggest screen you can get to.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Mar 28, 2013

Has aged as well as Lee Marvin's brown jacket and tangerine shirt ensemble - that is to say, spectacularly.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Mar 28, 2013

There are moments of breathtaking visual creativity, from the not-quite-freeze-frames over the opening credits to a series of confrontational close-ups when things turn violent.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 28, 2005

It gets back into the groove of Hollywood thrillers, after the recent glut of spies, counterspies, funny spies, anti-hero spies and spy-spier spies.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 23, 2004

What makes Point Blank so extraordinary is Boorman's virtuoso use of such unconventional avant-garde stylistics to saturate the proceedings with a classical noir mood of existential torpor and romanticized fatalism.
