Featured review
swift pace helps story
Back when HBO would show an action movie every Thursday night, i happened to catch this flick. I got way more then I expected. Heavener, aping Clint Eastwood's performance in Dirty Harry, has the looks of a rouge cop. the rest of the cast is just as good, and what a cast. jenilee Harrison, best known for her stint on Three's Company, Robert Reed, the brady bunch dad in his last major role, ANdrew Robinson, forever immortalized for his role as the Scorpio killer in Dirty Harry, and perhaps the best, music legend Issac Hayes, years before his rebirth with South Park. Then you have Tony Curtis, a true legend who can make any role work. The conflict of genetic between Heavener and Curtis is priceless, as they share many good one liners. The movie moves along swiftly, and despite the rehashed story line. Not too more dependency on big explosions, nudity. The movie works, plain and simple. Prime Target is a guilty little pleasure you won't feel guilty for enjoying.
