Coming from a police family, Tom Hardy ends up fighting his uncle after the murder of his father. Tom believes the killer is another cop, and goes on the record with his allegations. Demoted then to river duty, the killer taunts Tom.
A serial killer is back in Pittsburgh to torment the former homicide detective who was on his trail years before. Tom Hardy, who has been relegated to water-way duty, along with new partner Jo Christman, navigate the three rivers looking for clues and discovering bodies. This time the victims are women Tom knows, he must find the killer to prove his innocence.
Striking Distance is carved from the same block as countless other 90's cop vs. killer thrillers that the industry churned out. Some turn out excellent (Jennifer 8, Silence Of The Lambs) and some flail (The Watcher). This one falls squarely in the fun category, nothing too groundbreaking, but a solid dose of entertaining big city crime pulp. Bruce Willis plays Detective Tom Hardy (lol), whose pursuit of a vicious killer in the excellent prologue leads to the murderer's escape, and Hardy's disgrace. Is prompts Willis to steer his performance into grumpy hangdog territory, which he does oh so well. He's stripped of his stripes, and sent out on harbour patrol with rookie Jo Christman (Sarah Jessica Parker). Stuck with busting rich kids drinking on their parents speedboats, Hardy itches with the urge to still nail the killer. Dennis Farina plays the police chief solidly. Tom Sizemore is his dodgy detective son, a prime suspect, and Robert Pastorelli his other screw up kid. Veteran John Mahoney makes a brief appearance as Hardy's father, as well as nice work from Andre Braugher and Tom Atkins. It's no classic, but it's hard boiled 90's fun, with a cool Willis character and a nice urban vibe of scuzzy, behind dark doors violence, with a nice central whodunit aesthetic.
No i just don't give 10 because of that, it's no way a classic but a fun entertaining piece of movie...
Bruce Willis tell in an interview that it's his worst film.... well why this and Mercury Rising who are very entertaining and different from his standard roles... maybe because it's different !
Let's see.... Willis must have said that sentence before making: Marauders, Precious Cargo, Extraction, Vice, The Prince , G.I. Joe: Retaliation, A Good Day to Die Hard, The Cold Light of Day, Lay the Favorite, Catch .44, Setup, Cop Out, Surrogates... maybe i forgot some...
In the 90s, Bruce Willis was a king, long before being an has been who can't make a good film anymore and make it because of the pay check... maybe except Red and Death Wish (who is coming soon).
In this film, it's violent, graphic some times, you get sex scenes... not a film for the kids. a real film for adults. and Rowdy Herrington (Road House, 1992 Gladiator) know that. He makes a film he want to watch with his wife or alone and have a good 90 minutes of film without thinking much.
I won't go too much in details, but i'm a big fan of art, style and substance. While, this film has been criticize.... for what ? Being different from the usual action/thriller film we get in theatres ? This feels like the critics has been paid. That's what I say when I see a good film with unfair critic, and see the same similar product made in another company who get 4 star ratings.... and lot of time, it's less good !!
Someone said it in the reviews: There is a original location (Pittsburgh), original occupation for male lead (river patrol), a story with great twists, one of the best car chase scenes ever, a great tugboat takeover scene with a cool shootout and timely humor, great performances by some really good actors: Sarah Jessica, Dennis Farina, Tom Sizemore and Robert Pastorini. There is no reason why anyone would not enjoy this underrated treasure. The music is also great especially the eerie "little Red Riding Hood". I loved the fact that it was set on a river, it is quite original in that regard. Sure Bruce played basically the role as he did in many of his films such as "Die Hard" and "The Last Boy Scout" (both excellent films) but I say if its not broke don't fix it. Pure Movie Gold: "Striking Distance" !!
Sorry bro to copy/paste what you have said about this underrated gem but i'm with you 100% and will continue to like and defend this film! Don't let the bad ratings fool you!
The original British police force was the Constabulary of Ireland founded in 1822 (later given the royal appointment and renamed the Royal Irish Constabulary). It formed the basis for all other British police forces in the UK and across the British Empire including London's Metropolitan Police (formed in 1829) whose first 2 commissioners were both Irishmen with the necessary prior experience, Palestine Police, Royal Canadian Mounted Police etc. This established a long tradition of law enforcement running in Irish families worldwide, especially as many RIC officers emigrated to America after the violence surrounding Ireland's partition in 1922 and joined police forces there. In addition during the 19th century many corrupt, Irish dominated local governments such as New York's infamous Tammany Hall would reward their supporters with lucrative civil service jobs in the police force and fire department, often using the former as an instrument of political power. a5c7b9f00b
