“Point Blank” (2019) / Z-View

Point Blank (2019)

Director: Joe Lynch

Screenplay: Adam G. Simon based on characters created by Fred Cavayé

Stars: Frank Grillo, Anthony Mackie, Christian Cooke, Teyonah Parris and Marcia Gay Harden.

The Pitch: Let’s do an old-fashioned action-buddy movie where the buddies are thrown together and don’t get along.

Tagline: A Hell of a Day. A Hell of a Pair.

The Overview:  Beware of Spoilers…

Let me say from the start I liked Point Blank more than I thought I would and way more than most folks probably do.

An emergency room nurse (Mackie) finds himself teamed with an on-the-run thug (Grillo) in an effort to save the nurse’s kidnapped wife.   If you enjoy movies like 48hrs, Lethal Weapon and Tango & Cash, then you should be good to go.   I loved Point Blank and look forward to viewing it again.

Rating: 4 of 5 stars.
