- I've seen better
Ummm, you people who think Mickey Rourke (Martin Fallon) was giving a great performance really need to watch more movies. Rourke's accent was almost as funny as Richard Gere's in "The Jackal." He was okay, but not great.
Maybe this was a good movie in the 80's for that genre, but it was very slow, predictable and filled with stereotypical characterizations of cops and bad guys. Oh, the bad guys were especially terrible in this one (Alan Bates as Jack Meehan). Something like New York ... Read More
Rating: - A Prayer for the Dying
It is an excellent movie showing someone who has lost his taste for killing and the road he takes. The acting is very good and the story is excellent.
Rating: - It isn't King Lear, but it's better than you think!
I've read some pretty scathing reviews of this film, but I find every Mike Hodges film I've seen to be extremely interesting.This one is no exception. Bob Hoskins is said to be miscast---but I believed him.Alan Bates could read the phone book and I'd enjoy his work.And this is the only time I've ever liked Mickey Rourke's work. If you're exploring Hodges or you just want something a little different, give this one a shot.
Rating: - Underated

To all you doubters, it proves that Mickey Rourke is a great actor!
