€œOkay, okay, you can burn all the letters you want, I swear!€ Seriously?! I haven€™t gotten around to watching this one. Seeing Michael Keaton with Michael Caine in this over-the-top thriller must be something else. Both are excellent in everything they do. And as a bonus, we also get Rade Serbedzija! This movie can easily be reexamined in our current culture as a kind of Expendables prequel. It would be really cool to watch Keaton, Caine, and Serbedzija do scenes together. But even more importantly, this movie probably now gives off a sweet Bruce/Alfred energy that it wouldn€™t have when it was first released, kind of like seeing Alfred in his military days, and that€™s got to be awesome on that level. Maybe before one of them inexorably shoots Serbedzija€™s character, they say, €œNice coat.€ Maybe Serbedzija even looks surprised when they say so. Awesome stuff. But after reading the top spot on this list, you€™ll believe that an even greater combination than this once happened.
