Original Release Date: 1971 Blu-Ray Release Date: April 22nd, 2014 Plot: When his brother dies under mysterious circumstances in a car accident, London gangster Jack Carter travels to Newcastle to investigate. (IMDB) Why It Deserves A Blu-Ray Release: Get Carter is one of the movies that established Sir Michael Caine as a British badass. Michael was at his peak while portraying the titular Jack Carter, a role that allowed him to let loose and play a character that had more shades of grey than what audiences were used to. Although critics were mixed upon its initial release, over time, Get Carter has become known as a stone-cold crime classic. If you are a fan of Guy Ritchie films and want to see where he got some of his influence from, Get Carter needs to be on your list.
