The Outside Man (1973) Reviews

Member Rating:

This French-produced thriller was shot entirely in English. Jean-Louis Tritignant stars as Lucien, a hit man who goes to Los Angeles to end the life of an important local mobster. The mobster's heirs, who hired Lucien, had already hired yet another hit man (Roy Scheider) to kill him. He speaks very little English, and the lifestyles and customs of Los Angelenos puzzle him completely. One of the films highlights is its use of many unusual decayed and shabby sites in the Los Angeles area, such as Venice Beach. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

Starring:: Jean-Louis Trintignant, Ann-Margret, (more)

Considering the time period this movie was made, this was an ok movie. By todays standards, it has a made for TV feel and would probably play on TV during the work day or a lazy Sunday. I loved seeing the 1970 Ford Galaxie police cars doing burnouts trying to chase the other car. Maybe they had the 127/428 or 429 big block? Anyway, nice cool old big powerful police cars fishtailing around corners and flying over bumps in the road. Worth a watch when you are just sitting on the couch with nothing better to do.
