Deadly Pursuit
As reviewed by Miguel Codge Kesey
Sidney, show me your Poitier, now!!! This is one of my favourite films of all time, out of all the shite films of all time. It stars Sidney's Poitier as a cop, who's good at his job, and some other people...including Kirstie Alley's Crusty Alley.
It's about a murderer who murders some woman in a hostage situation and is chased by big Sidney into the mountains where he pretends to be on a fishing trip led by Krusty Alleyway. Sidney's hairy Poitier finds out and gets Krusty's boyfriend to guide him into the mountains. Krusty's boyfriend is an arrogant country-boy who doesn't want Sidney with him, because he's fat and city-pampered...Sidney is a stubborn stupid idiot who is badly dubbed, and shite.
So, the fun continues...Krusty's boyfriend leads Sidney into the mountains after the killer and an unknowing Krusty. And that's the story... Sidney and the dude get into all sorts of hilarious predicaments involving bears and snow and gayism.
The version of Deadly Pursuit I have was evidently shown at 9:30 AM on a Saturday morning, because it's dubbed to shit...phrases like "rat's ass" have been changed to "rat's ear"...and there's also a part where big Sid goes : "Wooooaaah, Cheesy!" instead of his actual line : "Get the fuck off me, bitch, or I'll split your cock."
We never watched the end of this film because Fun House was on, and we wanted to see Pat Sharpe's Sharp Pat penetrate the twins.
Fantastic movie though, buy it now. Or you will surely be Poitiered...
Or you could buy This Life...by Sidney Poitier...buy it twice if you like it, like Mr. Mallon, our old English teacher.
