雪山怒吼大追缉剧情介绍

After an eleven year absence from the screen, Sidney Poitier chose to return in an action/adventure film where he plays an FBI agent in search of a killer.
Hes got good reason to want this guy bad. His quarry is ruthless and kills without mercy. Poitier loses a hostage and the ransom hes asked for. But some good detective work has traced the man to a remote part of the Pacific Northwest.
Where the perpetrator has killed again and joined a party of dry fly fishermen being guided by Kirstie Alley into the rugged mountains. No place for a city kid like Poitier, says mountaineer/hermit Tom Berenger who has the prerequisite skills to get the job done. These two are forced into an alliance of inconvenience.
The best thing I liked about Shoot To Kill is the guessing game we play for the identity of the perpetrator. Any one of the five men in Kirstie Alleys party could have been the killer. Look at the cast list and youll recognize a few names whove played some pretty loathsome villains in the past. The identity is revealed suddenly and quite shockingly.
What I didnt like with Shoot To Kill is the fact that the final confrontation with the perpetrator is in big city Vancouver where hes escaped with Alley. He needed her in the woods, not any longer, she should have wound up dead. And Berenger and Poitier should have confronted him in the woods.
That script decision made the climax a rather ordinary one that you see in a whole lot of police chase films. Still all the players do fine here, my favorite being Kirstie Alley as the woods smart guide.
