As a teenager, this violent thriller, alongside the also-recommended "COP", was my introduction to the amazing James Woods.

Here he is electrifying as the hit man wanting to take down his former employer with the help of the always excellent Brian Dennehy. It is very much a movie of the 80s, but hey, there were some pretty great films made in the 80s!

For this money, it's worth catching up with one of the best of his generation when he was just starting to hit his stride.
