Synopsis
Get Carter (2000) is Stephen Kay's crime thriller, and you can watch it online on iFILM. Jack Carter collects debts for a Las Vegas mob outfit, and he is very good at the job.
A call from rainy Seattle changes everything: Jack's brother is dead in a car wreck. The cops chalk it up to drunk driving; Carter doesn't buy a word of it. He flies home for the funeral, reconnects with his niece Doreen (Rachael Leigh Cook) and his brother's widow, and starts pulling threads. The trail runs through a sleazy local porn racket, a slick tech mogul named Cyrus Paice (Mickey Rourke), and an old acquaintance, Cliff Brumby, played by Michael Caine, the original Carter from 1971. The deeper Jack digs, the more the guilty parties start looking like people he knows.
This is Hollywood's remake of the British classic, and Stallone plays it nearly mute, a stone face and heavy fists doing most of the talking. The Caine and Rourke cameos give it some weight. It never reaches the bleak depth of the original, but as a straight revenge picture it delivers, hard and grim and to the point. Stream Get Carter (2000) online on iFILM.
