6/10
Great.

On paper. Falls short in reality. Well short.

Hackman, Marvin and co are mobsters involved in a spat over money.

Let the shooting, beating and butchering begin. Throw in human trafficking for good measure.

All this set in rural America and Marvin's car.

Acting, directing and action are passable. Chase in the fields and homicidal harvester are memorable. Should be a good movie but it never really is. Just off somehow.

These guys have done better work so they can be forgiven. Spacek will help you make it a full pardon .

Any and every criticism just died at the first sight of her. Beautiful doesn't even begin to cover it. The woman is walking around naked but you would have to first get your eyes off that face to notice. Hypnotic. Makes an otherwise miss, a must see. Will watch this again for her alone.

Still radiant in her sixties. Sadly they don't make them like her any more.

Wish them well.

Thank you.
