Ricochet (1991)
7/10
Enjoyable Action Thriller

Continuing my plan to watch every movie in Denzel Washington's filmography I come to 1991's Ricochet.

I have been looking forward to this one. I have not seen it since it was released and I really remember liking it.

This is a lot darker and more violent than I remember. Directed by Russell Mulcahy (there is a sword scene that seems right out of Highlander) it's a good watch. Although I found the ending a but lame.

It's well-acted by a talented cast. Mary Ellen Trainor played reporter Gail Wallens, the same character she played in Die Hard. Another prominent actor from the Die Hard franchise, John Amos has a small role, but he isn't playing the same character.

Ricochet grossed less than $22 million at the box office and was the 62nd highest grossing movie of 1991.
