Having served a nine-year prison sentence, cockney criminal Wilson (Terence Stamp) emerges to discover that his estranged daughter, Jenny (Melissa George), has been killed in a car crash. When he finds out that Jenny was having an affair with American rock music promoter Terry Valentine (Peter Fonda), Wilson flies out to Los Angeles, looking for revenge. Upon his arrival he is beaten up by thugs apparently employed by Valentine, and so embarks on a one-man crusade to discover how Valentine was involved in Jenny's death. (Lionsgate UK)

Stylish, uncompromising, and full of interesting editing choices—classic Steven Soderbergh. But the film doesn’t quite hook you the way you'd hope. It's more of an art deco revenge story, which might not be everyone’s cup of tea. Cool, but not as gripping as it could be.
