Pausing only to bid farewell to his drunkard dad, Police Clifford (Dennis Hopper). But the couple's get-rich-quick plans go awry when suave but at the same time monstrous boss Coccotti (Christopher Walken) tries to persuade Clifford to divulge his son's whereabouts. Meantime, the happy couple has dreams of selling their booty to a hophead Hollywood producer (Saul Rubinek).

Horrific violence mixed with very black humor clicks most of the time. Quentin Tarantino helped finance "Reservior Dogs" when he sold this screenplay, his first and there's an unrated version also available as well. If the romance seldom seems 'true', the spiralling violence does succeed, in a brutish, excessive kind of way. Resulting to be an offbeat, action-packed thriller with a star-studded cast and made in style by Tony Scott. The orgy of sadism and violence that follows after stealing millions of cocaine is like an old-fashioned comedy with adult certificate. The main entertaining of the movie is discover the secondary actor to appear in the next frame, most of them playing small characters, including the following: Christopher Walken as an icily debonair mafioso; Dennis Hopper as an ex-cop, Clarence's dad, who runs afoul of Walken; Brad Pitt as a space-case druggie; Gary Oldman as a crazed pimp; Val Kilmer as the ghost of Elvis Presley, among others. These actors deliver nice acting, but their performances are pitched at high-decibel level and their roles are all dislikeable.

The motion picture was well directed by Tony Scott, following his peculiar style. He's helped by a good cameraman, Jeffrey Kimball, who displays a colorful and brilliant cinematography, along with the catching musical score by prestigious Hans Zimmer, including a catching leitmotif, composed by synthesizer. Tony Scott alonside his brother, the famous producer/director Ridley Scott, founded a successful film production called Scott-Free Productions. Director Tony Scott has made various successful films, such as: "The Hunger", "Top Gun", "Beverly Hills cop 2", "Revenge", "Day of thunder", "The last Boy Scout", "Crimson Tide", "The Enemy of the State", "The fan", "Enemy of the state", "Spy game", "Man of fire", "Domino", and "Dejá Vu", this was his last one, because he committed suicide in 2012, jumping from a bridge.

A bit later on, they have to penetrate the lush jungle to find their target. He only needs one shot!. Everyone is a target!.

A familiar story with plenty of action, violence, shootouts, and a twisted intrigue. There's action enough, but is poorly choreographed and plot is cursory at best. Along the way, the smooth running of the operation is swiftly jeopardised by growing tension, treason and other shortfalls. The plot is somewhat reminiscent of "Francis Ford Coppola's Apocalypse Now", in which an officer, Martin Sheen, is assigned in assessinating Colonel Kurtz, Marlon Brando, on a journey through the jungle, while in "Sniper 3" a Sergeant, Tom Berenguer, has the mission to kill renegade John Doman. The motion picture was uneven but professionally directed by P. J. Pesce.

This funny comedy set in Scotland deals with a mild-mannered accountant , (Peter Sellers has rarely been more insidiously hilarious), who plots the murder of the female efficiency expert (represented by Constance Cummings), who has disrupted the comfortable regime of a traditionally-run Edinburgh tweed cloth factory.

Attractive comedy with pompous fun, based on "James Thurber's short story, The Catbird", its view of women's place in the business world is unlikely to find favour with feminists and enlightened fellow travellers. The tone shifts uncertainly between sharp satire and facile farce. An Ealing-style comedy with a sympathetic premise which raises laughs by pitting American efficiency embodied by Constance Cummings against Scots canniness personified by Peter Sellers.

Peter Sellers, always a favorite, is awesome as an elderly Scottish Highlander bent on murder when he attempts to prevent a businness takeover by a brash American woman. Robert Morley is wonderful as well, he is simply delightful , while Constance Cummings is really enjoyable; all of them help keep this British comedy on a fast and funny track. An impeccable Peter Sellers and a slendid support cast make this one unique. The good secondary cast include the following: Donald Pleasence, Ernest Thesiger, Jameson Clark, Michael Goodliffe, Alex Mckenzie, among others. Many of them are some of Scotland's finest character players of the period.

This sophisticated motion picture was well directed by Charles Crichton. He was one of the best British filmmakers, a comedy expert from Ealing studios.

"Battle of the sexes" rating: 6.5/10. The movie will appeal to Peter Sellers fans and classic British comedy lovers.
