Shoot to Kill (1988)
Member Rating:  
Sidney Poitier makes his long-overdue return to films in the 1988 thriller Shoot to Kill. Poitier plays an FBI agent, on the trail of an elusive killer. Reluctantly teamed with tracker Tom Berenger, the citified Poitier braves the wilds of the Pacific Northwest in search of his quarry. For Berenger, the pursuit is personal; the killer, whose identity is not immediately revealed, has joined a hunting party being guided through the country by the tracker's girlfriend Kirstie Alley. Though only bearing the slightest resemblance to Real Life (you'll love the scene between lifelong city-dweller Poitier and a huge grizzly bear), Shoot to Kill delivers the goods in the suspense department. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    I LIKE THE WAY THE TWO MAIN CHARACTERS CAME TOGETHER IN ORDER TO SOLVE THEIR MISSION!

    This film is entertaining and has some moments of humor. The actors play their characters well and the movie holds your attention from beginning to end.

    I watched this movie when it was released in the theater, and I enjoyed it. When it was out on DVD I rented it and watched it with some friends, no one in the group could guess who the killer was. A tight action/drama (some humor) movie. A MUST SEE for Sidney Poitier fans.
