Sly Stallone has slowly transformed himself into a good actor. This was a re-make of the original released in 1971 and Michael Caine has a role in this remake. It isn't as gritty as the 1971 was but Stallone was solid as an avenger. The draw grows as early in the film, his counter while seated, to Michael Caine's rising to confront him was laser. From that point on Stallone held the eyes. The niece gave a good performance and Mickey Rourke is proof positive most actors aren't acting - you're just looking at what the casting director saw.
