Malone (1987)
6/10
Solid Action Film
18 November 2021
"Malone" was an enjoyable watch. I had missed this piece of 80's nostalgia until now, but it was decent. Burt Reynolds gives a nice understated performance and I thought the other actors were good as well, especially the girl. The film also features nice scenery and settings. I wish the villain's plans were elaborated a little more though. And I wish the musical score was a little stronger; I think that would have helped. But "Malone" is a solid action film though not unique of course as this storyline has been done many times such as in "First Blood" in 1982 and later in "Taffin" in 1988, and "Road House" in 1989. But it is a genre which can accommodate several players and iterations. My rating 6/10.
