    ★★★★

    A gritty revenge thriller from Sergio Sollima. Charles Bronson’s hitman ‘Jeff Heston’ seeks retribution after being brutally betrayed by his lover. Themes of betrayal, vengeance and corruption pervade amid a tangle of double-crosses. A blend of neo-noir aesthetics with some well executed action sequences. The use of sound is particularly impressive. From the near-silent opening and climactic sequences, to Morricone’s snarling score.

    ★★★★★

    A bold, brutal, and gripping revisionist Western - exploring themes of freedom, revenge, bigotry and racial injustice. Tarantino’s excellent direction and sharp script blend action, dark humour and incisive moments of tension. The performances of its stellar cast are superb across the board - with DiCaprio delivering a genuinely chilling turn as the central villain. A powerful, provocative and visually stunning cinematic triumph.

    How the hell did Jamie and Liz not recognise Howard when he was dressed as Turbo Man?
