Excellent 1980s Bronson Film.



I have seen a few of Charles Bronson's 1980s flicks all of which I've enjoyed but this one really stood out for me. Bronson plays Leo Kessler a cop who forgets whats legal and does whats right. He plays the role almost to perfection. The film is highly suspenceful, the score is great and the villain is truely evil. 10 to Midnight is a solid and often quite scary Action/Thriller which I would highly recommend to fans of Charles Bronson and Action films alike.

I agree. Warren Stacey is such a perfect creep. He's a cold, calculating and even somewhat sophisticated sociopath. This is one Bronson flick where there is a fairly formidable adversary with some character depth, rather than a faceless running target for his muzzle.

Great cast too!

Very good point about Warren Stacey. Most Bronson films have one-dimensional thugs, but this one is quite cultured and has some depth. Maybe he's even smarter than Bronson's character. Of course, his weakness proves to be his undoing.
