Search and Destroy (William Fruet - 1979) The Glove (Ross Hagen - 1979)
Search and
Destroy is tough shit. It’s supposedly one of the first "post Vietnam
vet" movies. It’s reckless and hard-hitting in a manner that only 70ties
movies can get away with.
The Glove
featuring John Saxon as a modern-day bounty hunter in Los Angeles promised
much, but turned out to be a softer film than Search and Destroy. There is an
effort to make a more complex movie with a likable villain and addressing racial
issues. The whole thing comes across as somewhat underdeveloped, but it still
has decent entertainment value.
Both films
are presented in their original 1.85 : 1. aspect ratio
