4.0 out of 5 stars Some slight David Lynch influence, but good nonetheless, June 25, 2002
This review is from: Robert B. Parker's Walking Shadow [VHS] (VHS Tape)
As I've said with my reviews of the previous A&E Spenser flicks, this is edgier than the originals, stays true to the original book and has iffy casting, although Ernie Hudson does a better job as Hawk than Shiek Mahmud-Bey did (this is also the first time Hawk has been clean-shaven). The camera work is unusual, shifting between the clean, crisp images from the standard TV/motion picture cameras and a grainier version that seems to have been filmed using a conventional home video camrera. It's also not as straightforward in style as the others, including several surreal sequences like Spenser fantasizing about Lonnie Wu's gunsels ventilating him in his own office and everyone in the coffee shop Spenser and Hawk are eating in freezing in place after a drive-by while Spenser looks around in shock and Hawk berates the shooters' incompetence.
