Pokolba az élettel

The film is a great parody of the noir genre. It has stylish characters, the detached commentary of the protagonist who is always above it all, very corrupt villains, and a sexy lady who teases the protagonist and plays her own game with him. The wild shootout at the beginning sets a somewhat frantic pace, more fitting for a comic book classic, but fortunately, the atmosphere slows down a bit, so we tune in to the wave of casual loners. The script indeed falters a bit in the logic of the narrative, but that can always be forgiven due to the aforementioned parodic intent. To be honest, many lesser films in the genre are in the same boat. Give 'Em Hell Malone is a stylish homage to trash films, and I cannot give it less than 4 stars solely because of Matchstick with his disgustingly scarred face and pitch-black soul. Overall impression: 75%. (2011.01.26)

Blood, badass dudes, wisecracks, and a beautiful woman. After a great start, it fluctuates a little, but some nonsense always comes along that makes you laugh. A drunk mom, a burned-out Doug Hutchison. On top of that, Jane is better in this badass role than most. A really enjoyable B-movie. - Do you think it’s because of me? - It’s more likely your dumb face. (2010.01.24)
