Hard Boiled Marsh Film Club Entry #14 / April 2020
NC-16 | 2h 8min | Action, Crime, Thriller
Synopsis: A tough-as-nails cop teams up with an undercover agent to shut down a sinister mobster and his crew.
Viewing deadline: Thursday 30 April 2020
Attention: tao , stfubaker , stuartoxlade , Ghosty , theblackpage , essien , itschewthirty , poembie , colton , chocollama , v9733xa , bainzy and anyone else who's interested. It's time for the 14th entry in the Marsh Film Club. This one was selected by a general consensus of people in the group. Per the group's request, I've set a viewing deadline of 30 April, so make sure you watch it before then and please don't post any thoughts/spoilers until after that date. Feel free to use this thread to talk generally in the meantime - let us know if you're taking part, any difficulties tracking down the film, or just to say you've watched it. Discussion points? If anyone wants to have a crack at this if they watch it early then feel free to add some. One from me though is: "Which movie is better? This or Die Hard?" If anyone can't find the film to watch, here you go

I'm down. Loved this movie but it's been so long since I watched it. The Killer and A Better Tomorrow are good companions too.

Hey, question: where is the best place to stream/rent this? I can't seem to find it available at the moment.

Yeah... well, I'll use that if I have to. Well... I could mail you my Criterion copy for you to “rent”, but I don’t know if you’d get it on time...

There really aren’t any questions I can think of, per se, but I’d be interested to hear thoughts on any aspects you found interesting.
Actually, I have one question: what do you feel is this film’s legacy as an action film?

The link is broken. Guess I'm not watching. Just search for it on YouTube. It's still on there.

This movie fucking ruled. I immediately bought a copy off of eBay once it finished.
