Payback
Written By David Russell
This is a different departure for Mel Gibson. It is a dark somber
film filled with violence and kidnaping. They spend all their
time trying to get l30 thousand from the mafia. Mel gibson spends
more time getting beat up than he does acting in this film. It
looks like an old Frank Sinatra movie. The members of the mafia
dissapear one by one while Mel keeps getting beat up. His wife
gets killed , and everybody is on Mel Gibsons list. If you like
gritty violent films go see this movie. This film would look more
realistic in black and white. Wait till it comes to a dollar
theatre if you have one. Mel Gibson plays an anti hero in this
one. Every thing ends happily as it can in this type of movie. I
have trouble with detective films. Lethal Weapon it wasnt.
