Stylish, slow paced thriller obviously influenced by "Point Blank" and "The Hit". The cinematography is great, the editing quite experimental (but successfully so) with some great supporting roles. But somehow Stamp's acting left me feeling he was playing an American's idea of an east end gangster.

Feels like sort of a reply piece to/inversion of Get Carter, in a good way, although this fails make the same kind of impression.

A cockney out to settle the score in California. Stamp in a re-imagining of an earlier role full of charisma.

The story is an old one, and the sound is kind of tinny, but this movie is put over almost solely by the supreme coolness of Terence Stamp

Really good with lots of drama. Stamp is fantastic as the ex-con out for revenge. Recommended.

This is a small stylish slightly boring revenge tale. It has some interesting tricks up its sleeve, but I found Stamp very annoying.

My favorite of Soderberg's. The Limey is a simple, and wildly entertaining revenge tale. Obviously, Terence Stamp is a force to be reckoned with, but his ruthlessness as an oddly comical aura that fits perfectly with the fantastic narrative structure. The editing is bizarre, but works.

The editing style is probably the thing that stands out the most, and I have to admit it took me a while for it to click. Once it did, though, I thought is was brilliant. A great way to really get into a character's head. Stamp's performance is fantastic, so that helped too.

I'll be honest, the music-video-ish editing never really jibed with me, which made it difficult to appreciate this as much as I might otherwise have. Still, it's a fun story, well-told, and Stamp is great as the titular baddie; his method of dispatch for the bouncer at the party is the hardest I've laughed at a kill in a while.

I was really bored with this movie. I would not be able to recommend this film. I was not impressed with Peter Fonda in the villain role.

my only misgiving is near the beginning with the implausibility of Stamp holding down buddy's head with one hand while flipping through buddy's rolodex and scooping the crucial number with his other. And, without buddy noticing.
