Synopsis
A guilt-ridden hitman Joe (Bronson), who bailed out of a job seven years before, has become an expatriate living in France. Now married, with wife (Liv Ullman) and stepdaughter, he runs a charter boat and at the same time one of his former cohorts shows up. A fight ensues and Bronson kills him. Unfortunately, the victim is only a vanguard for three new adversaries who make Bronson a deadly proposal. It is now Bronson's turn to take the initiative. He kidnaps his adversary's (James Mason) wife (Jill Ireland), steals his money, and stashes both for a trade. The ball is now in Mason's court and treachery is well within his grasp . Yet, a third player appears unbeknownst to either man...

3.0 out of 5 stars Ride the Nightmare, 21 Jan 2007
By Trevor Willsmer (London, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)      
A couple of years before teaming up on The Valachi Papers, Terence Young directed Charles Bronson in this entirely disposable but rather enjoyable Friday nighter from a novel by Richard Matheson (has any living writer ever had so many novels and short stories filmed?). It's nothing special, but surprisingly entertaining if you're in the right mood, and offers the once-in-a-lifetime casting coup of Liv Ullmann playing Bronson's romantic interest. Yes, that's Ingmar Bergman regular Liv Ullmann in a Charles Bronson film. Just to make the casting even more memorable, you also get a bearded James Mason in a beanie sporting an ahtrayjuss Suvvern axescent as the lead villain of the piece, Jean Topart dubbed by Bond regular Robert Rietty and the inevitable Jill Ireland as an annoying rich hippie chick. It's a simple past-catching-up-with-man-trying-to-make-a-fresh-start plot as Mason and his gang of cashiered army gangsters try to force him into ferrying them to a drug drop by threatening his family only for him to turn the tables, but it's made with brisk efficiency, has a couple of neat plot twists and a display of some impressive driving along dangerous mountain roads courtesy of Remy Julienne.

There are multiple public domain versions of this title available, but the UK PAL DVD from Cinema Club/2 Entertain is the one to go for, boasting the best transfer in 1.85:1 widescreen. The print does include the French title (de la Part des Copains) but has the English soundtrack. No extras, however.
