CHARLEY VARRICK (1973)

                         

  "They're gonna strip you naked and go to work on you with a pair of plyers and a blowtorch"

 One of the best movies I've seen in a while. Obvious influence on Quentin Tarantino(especially with that line up above that he stole) this one is filled with an all-star cast including stars Walter Matthau and Joe Don Baker. A bank robbery goes wrong and the mafia gets involved. Shoot-outs, double-crosses, ass-kicking and explosions occur. A notable car vs. plane chase is a highlight. Director Don Siegel(responsible for lots of classics including the original INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHRES and DIRTY HARRY) has got to be one of the greatest directors to ever have to work within the Hollywood system.
