Shoot To Kill. There Is No Pause Button.

If you've been following the other entries to this blog, you've probably already noticed that the word "chase" applies to a lot of 191 Movies. We're not offering any apologies. When a moviemaker knows how to stage a chase, it's a talent he or she should use as often as humanly possible.  Shoot To Kill is a great, great chase movie.  When you add that you care about the characters and are rooting for them, there isn't much else to be said.  Other than, give in, buy the movie, watch the movie again and again and again.  You can thank the great cast, in particular Sidney Poitier and Tom Berenger - and the director Roger Spottiswode, but frankly, you'll be too busy enjoying the chase.  By the way, this chase isn't just on highways.  It's in the woods, on ferries, in lakes, cities, towns - everywhere.  And like we said, you can just forget the pause button.
