Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
"Street Justice" is a dark film. Michael Ontkean stars as Curt, who is a CIA agent. He goes back to his old town to realize it's corrupt.The writing and directing is offbeat for a cop thriller.The acting by Michael Ontkean is very good and Joanna Kerns was tolerable. There's not much action except for the climax.Other movies by Richard Sarafian are "Vanishing Point" (1971) and "Eye of the Tiger" which are both entertaining. If you looking for another Michael Ontkean movie, "Legacy Of Lies" co-starring Martin Landau and Eli Wallach is a fine one. Ontkean is just as underrated as Eric Roberts and Treat Williams.For more insanity, please visit: comeuppancereviews.com
