The Real McCoy
Directed by Russell Mulcahy
Karen McCoy is released from prison with nothing but the clothes on her back. Before being incarcerated, Karen was the bank robber of her time, but now she wishes for nothing more than to settle down and start a new life. Unfortunately, between a dirty parole officer, old business partners, and an idiot ex, she will have to do the unthinkable in order to save her son. From TMDB

neutral · AI labelView post →Very sad about the passing of Val Kilmer. An actor of wide range. Of course, Heat and Tombstone are widely praised films that he starred in. For me, his performance as Jim Morrison in 'The Doors' movie will be my number one. I do also recommend 'Thunderheart' and 'The Real McCoy'. #filmsky

positive · AI labelView post →I just rewatched GGM (I was in secondary school when it was on BBC2 and it mode boing Asian cool haha) a couple of months ago and now I'm almost through The Real McCoy. Ghir is a great actor. I love his Frank Butcher in Rub a Dub.

neutral · AI labelView post →Kim Bassinger’s name is McCoy in the Getaway and if memory serves she played a thief or cat burglar in the movie The Real McCoy. I refuse to use Google so I’m just going to assume this is a shared universe and hope MCU is taking notes on how to do it right.
neutral · AI labelView post →Denzel is great as usual, and John Lithgow's "Ricochet" performance is scarier than his work in Brian De Palma's "Blow Out." P.S.--incorporating the real "Watts Tower" into the movie is genius. My other fav Russell Mulcahy film is the Kim Basinger heist movie, "The Real McCoy."

neutral · AI labelView post →I stumbled on a trailer of The Real McCoy and was fucking jazzed to see a fun, bank-heist movie with Kim Basinger and a goofy ass Val Kilmer, but instead got a fucking snoozefest about the hardships of life on parole with a little dash of crime. v disappointed.
negative · AI labelView post →Solid heist-thriller featuring good performances from Basinger and Kilmer. Terrence Stamp also had his moments even as a basic, greedy, bad guy. Kind of a feel good movie to watch when you don't want to think too hard. 3.75/5
