One of the earliest and of the best SS movies
20 September 2005
Duel is a movie that entertains from beginning to the end only if you don't like only movies with complicated plots. It is one hell of a ride through a USA highway. David Mann is the main character who is driving his car not suspecting what is going to happen. He has a family and he is a happy man as well. At least from what we see before the nightmare. And the nightmare is one truck. No monsters, aliens or something scary but fictional. It is a truck whose driver, is a killer and he chooses David for killing purposes. The truck is very fast and scary looking but it is completely real and it stalks David, everywhere, he goes. The greatness, is that it entertains with something that could be understood by a 4 years old. It is one of the very firs movies of Steven Spielberg. The movie is also TV kind but that is not a big problem cause Duel wins another prize:"Best TV movie ever made". It has been nominated for Golden Globe and everybody here at the IMDb, loves it. Full of action and suspense, Duel gives you a notion what does a "mad driver" really means.
