Blood Street

About This Movie

So, Blood Street, from 1988, is one of those gritty action flicks that just kind of washes over you with its rough edges. PI Joe Wong, played with a tough determination, is a classic lone wolf, navigating the seedy underbelly of San Francisco. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, but it adds to that raw, almost unpredictable feel of the movie. There's an intriguing chase through the criminal world, spiced up with practical effects that really capture the era. The performances are a mixed bag, but they bring a certain charm to the story, especially the scenes with Wong and the desperate wife looking for Aldo. This film is definitely a slice of its time and has a certain atmosphere that fans of the genre can appreciate.
