Customer Reviews
Underated Bruce Willis
This movie is pretty typical in many ways but Bruce Willis delivers an outstanding performance in just about every single movie he is in and this is another in a long line.
Former big city cop banished to being just a river rat there is more at stake than finding his fathers killer when women from his past keep winding up dead in the river for him to find.
Sarah Jessica Parker also delivers an excellent performance that was very surprising.
This is a must own for Bruce Willis fans and fans of the 80's/90's thriller/action movies.
Typical Bruce Willis
This is his forte. I surely wouldn't be watching a Bruce Willis movie for the romance! Lots of action, and drama. Not a family movie.
Cops running a muck in Pittsburg? Bruce attempts to clean the city up with the help of Sarah Jessica Parker.
Underrated Genre Gem
Bruce Willis at the peak of his action hero form playing a cynical hard-boiled cop trying to fight the system. A pre-Sex and the City Sarah Jessica Parker at the peak of her cuteness. Great character actors like Dennis Farina, Tom Sizemore, Brion James, Tom Mahoney, and Andre Braugher. Superb on location cinematography shot by Mac Ahlberg in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, a cool genre score by Brad Fiedel (love that saxaphone love theme) and on the mark (and wonderfully over the top) direction by Rowdy Herington of Road House fame. Striking Distance is a nice little hard boiled action gem that seems to be slowly gaining a nice little cult following. For fans of 80's and 90's action films, this is a movie worth seeking out.
