What a cinematic triumph for De Palma and his loyal fans. A sterling piece of work from Brian coupled with stupendous characterisation from the entire cast guaranteed me a thriller of magnetic proportions. Pino Donaggio's gritty underlying score highlights the sheer magnitude of the indispensable 'Blow-Out' climactic moment. Travolta and Allen keep things moving in this thought-provoking masterpiece, not to mention John Lithgow who without a shadow of a doubt, is perfectly suited to be the ultimate villain. One could say that it really is bemusing why this movie didn't rake in a lot at the box office because this is clearly Oscar-worthy material. A must-see movie for all.
