Product Description:

Amazon.com:
Point of No Return is one of those Hollywood remakes of a European hit in which one can visualize a committee of studio executives sitting around and saying, "Okay, we know what made the original film unique and different and fun. How can we make that same movie and do exactly the opposite?" For-hire director John Badham (Saturday Night Fever) took La Femme Nikita, Luc Besson's undeniably sexy, original, and kitschy French film about a female assassin, and translated it into a calculating, mechanistic American thriller with no distinctive style. Bridget Fonda gamely plays the willowy street punk who becomes a high-society killer, but once that provocative irony is in place, the movie is pretty much a series of by-the-numbers action set pieces. Until, that is, Dermot Mulroney shows up as a love interest; but even that twist can't save this film. You're much better off with the original, subtitles and all. --Tom Keogh

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Must See!
If you haven't seen the movie yet, make it a point to! GREAT movie!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - No Point To It At All
I just saw this movie (again) two days ago, I had seen it many years back when it first came out. Unfortunately at the time I had not seen La Femme Nikita and my sister recommended the original. I was stunned! Up until this point I had no idea that Hollywood actually copied material in this manner (honestly I didn't). As I watched the original I became more and more disgusted with this American version.

I really wonder though if I should blame the American people or Hollywood for ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - bridget in blue ray...... YES!!!!
Hadthis movie on VHS and 10 ytimes better on Blue Ray Bridgette Fonda in HD on 55" LED. WOW



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Trained for Independence
No spoiler. How do you make a Bond? From scratch. Gripping, fun, and twisty enough to stay interesting, with a good love story, tasteful sex scene. Good quality recording and great sound



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - See the original, or see this version for Bridget Fonda
The Blu-ray picture looked better than I expected, although I noticed some edge enhancement in scenes with a lot of contrast. The movie itself is a nearly scene-for-scene remake of Luc Besson's Nikita, only with Bridget Fonda and without the pesky subtitles. Besson's original is the better film, but Fonda almost, but not quite, saves this version. The poster art was certainly cool.
