The Mechanic (1972)
Excellent Action Film
8 July 2004
This film I hated when I first saw it, because I wasn't really paying attention to what was going on, but when I saw it for the second time, I absolutely loved it! Every time I check out this movie, I'm in awe of how cool Charles Bronson is for being so calm he is no matter what is happening. This movie doesn't take up much time with b.s. scenes that are full of dialog and pointlessness. Instead, this movie gets straight to the point and has a story line that is totally awesome! The direction by Michael Winner is excellent and in my opinion is what should be emulated by current directors because the movie is very suspenseful - if you don't believe me, check out what he does with the opening scene with NO dialog. This is clearly one of Bronson's best films, and one of my favorites. Of course, if I like a movie, you know that it has to be at least kind of good because I hate every movie I see.
