“萨姆·佩金帕”导演的《杀手精英》是一部非常好的电影,加上詹姆斯·肯恩,罗伯特·杜瓦尔,鲍勃·霍斯金斯,阿瑟·希尔等演员的加盟,使这部原本平淡的剧本焕发出新的光彩,赢得了观众的高度评价。
Mike Locken is one of the principal members of a group of freelance spies. A significant portion of their work is for the C.I.A. and while on a case for them, one of his friends turns on him and shoots him in the elbow and knee. His assignment, to protect someone, goes down in flames. He is nearly crippled, but with braces is able to again become mobile. For revenge as much as anything else, Mike goes after his ex-friend.
