À propos de ce film

Oscar-nominated, Golden Globe and Emmy-winning superstar Burt Reynolds ("Evening Shade") is Sharky, a relentless undercover vice cop determined to smash an international crime syndicate while protecting a beautiful and dangerously involved young call-girl (Rachel Ward, "The Thorn Birds"). An action-packed drama, full of intrigue! Directed by Reynolds, based on the chiller novel by William Diehl ("Primal Fear"). One of 1981's top Christmas box-office pictures!

Notes et avis

The late Mr. Reynolds had a pretty decent eye for directing. This film is uneven at times but I enjoyed the punchy dialogue...there was a sense of humor in the film that is a lot like today's films. Pretty sure a remake more faithful to the source material is coming but I hope it will not take itself too serious much like this movie.The supporting cast does well in their roles and Burt lets them all shine. If you enjoy old cop/action yarns you wont do wrong with this one.

Great stuff Movies eating up Action Love it all over again Burt Reynolds is great.

Old school is that real whoop azz !
