The Mechanic : Murder is just killing without a license


Pff. No way can Bronsons 'tach even keep pace with Nicholsons. Charles Bronsons face looks like a shoelace drapped over a squinting walnut, completely out of the moustache race I'm afraid.

A mechanic is the Mobs term for a hitman by the way, the only reason I can figure for this is they give bizarre and vague pricing structures for a job that isn't as complicated as it might seem.

My favourite line: 'Yeah, I heard something like that sometime'. What?

My favourite scene: A bonkers house party with a fully dressed couple in a bathtub being watched by a pig on a dresser. Insane.

Although the storyline of up-and-coming hitman tutelage may seem like a prequel to Leon, it really isn't. There is no link to Leon in anyway, and you shouldn't trouble yourself thinking about it.

PS: Calm down dear, the film was directed by Michael Winner, no wonder it was dooples.
