My Thoughts:
This is one of the movies I got in a free 20 disc/40 movie boxset I got when I subscribed to Total Movie Magazine. Whenever I think of Sherlock Holmes it is Basil Rathbone that I think of. Though this is one title of many that I never seen before today. It is a good old movie. I enjoyed it quite a bit. I especially liked the ending of this movie. And as usual.... Professor Watson is good for a laugh or two.

Vigilante, a review by Jimmy

Title: Vigilante (1983)

Genre: Action
Director: William Lustig
Rating: Unrated (originally rated R)
Length: 1h29
Video: Widescreen
Audio: English, French, Italian and German
Subtitles: CC and Spanish

Stars:
Robert Forster
Fred Williamson
Richard Bright
Rutanya Alda
Don Blakely

Plot:What we have here is to tell it simply the best movie directed by Lustig (don't forget that he is responsible for Maniac, Maniac Cop and The Violation of Claudia). This movie had probably one of the best opening of the cinema history (some will certainly said that I exaggerates as usual) with a great speach by Fred Williamson. The characters even if they are establish fastly aren't caricature and you care and root for them. Great acting from Robert Forster, his performance is just incredible and feels real. Fred Williamson is as good as usual and you get a small cameo by the always appreciated Joe Spinell. The instrumental theme song is powerfull and awesome (when you hear the first note later it doesn't take you long to understand that Eddie Marino is in revenge mode). Well written script that doesn't give you a chance to take your breath. Frankly one of the best american revenge movie ever made...

Great eighties movie that you must watch if you want to see the greatness of the American independant cinema before it was put to death by the disapearance of the independant movie theatre and the drive in.
