Plot
Summary: A vicious London gangster, Jack
Carter, travels to Newcastle for his brother's funeral.
He begins to suspect that his brother's death was
not an accident and sets out to follow a complex trail
of lies, deceit, cover-ups and backhanders through
Newcastle's underworld, leading, he hopes, to the
man who ordered his brother killed. Because of his
ruthlessness Carter exhibits all the unstopability
of the android in Terminator, or Walker in Point Blank,
and he and the other characters in the film are prone
to sudden, brutal acts of violence.
Comments:
Classic
British crime thriller with Michael Caine as Jack
Carter, an enforcer for the London mob who goes back
to home to Newcastle to discover the reasons behind
his brother's death. Grim and bleak in its view worldview,
the only glimmer of humanity comes from Carter himself
when he finds out the truth. The soundtrack by Roy
Budd is superb with the main theme an absolute classic.
