Fantastic noir. Always a privilege to watch Sir Anthony do what he does best + brilliant cinematography and soundtrack as well.

- Love the soundtrack of this too.webazoot
- this is a fucking great movieoey_oey

- It's so good. Old-school car chases should give the car's suspension a cast credit.garbage
- The Seven-Ups, French Connection, Bullitt. Shit, even Cobra. Something about the bounce and sway is just so satisfying.garbage
- Primal Scream were inspired to make a brilliant album titled... well, "Vanishing Point" https://en.wikipedia…)Krassy

Watched this a few weeks ago and it is the best psychological thriller i've seen in years.

- My favorite Kubrick. People tend to mention the orgy scene but it’s pretty tame by today’s standards. Fantastic movie about marriage and infidelitynb

- There's some really interesting BTS chats with people who worked on the film and the 'games' Kubrick would play to get the performances he wanted...Morning_star
- ...Because the Kidman/Cruise relationship was so intense, he'd have them on the set on different days and foster an air of suspicion by talking bullshit to bothMorning_star
- He probably caused their divorcenb

Jim Carrey is a god
- I'm not sure I've ever seen him not making an intentionally ugly face. How did he decide to dedicate his life to that?CyBrainX
- one of his first stand up acts was just him contorting his face on stage. Not sure if it's on YouTube.futurefood

- Donnie Darko??fooler
- Bro doesn’t even teleport at all in this flickprophetone
- Kind of crazy that this isn't in his top 5. Jarhead, Prisoners, Brothers, Zodiac, Darko.garbage
- ^ he was the best actor by miles in Roadhouse, but still couldn’t make it watchableIanbolton
- Add to list.palimpsest
- Oh right, Jarhead was good.

- Fantasticnb
- I read that they built all the sets and painted them entirely in grayscale. So the actors would feel like they were in the black and white era.nb
- far out ..neverscared
- I wonder if looking at another actor in that set would feel like that corny selective color photoshop effectnb

Watched this last night.
I forgot how good Keaton was at playing one of those ambiguously scatty characters. The whole films feels disjointed and somewhat confusing, a little like having dementia I guess, but the humour and intrigue carry it. Bit slow at times, but I really enjoyed it. 8/10- Looks good. Watched Pacific Heights recently and it's held up well.MrT
- It is shit. Had potential, but it's shit.crazyprick
- totally valid opinions as always crazyprickIanbolton
- Well, I'm a big, big Keaton fan. But this ain't it, chief.crazyprick
- let me guess - "it wasn't as good as you thought it was gonna be?"Ianbolton
- Wrong, dummy. It has a contrived plot, sluggish pacing, half-baked performances. Deal with it.crazyprick

An entertaining, self-aware love letter to all those violent revenge stories and with a seedy Indian setting. Occasionally a little muddled and clasutrophobic, but rattles along with great fight scenes. And Boney M.
