| Plot |
| A man who has made murder his business is thrown into the underbelly of an unfamiliar criminal world in this thriller. Jack Carter ( Sylvester Stallone ) is a ruthless hired killer whose bloody career in Los Angeles has driven a wedge between himself and his family in the Northwest. When he learns that his brother has died, he flies back to Seattle, hoping to pay his respects and reconnect with his relatives. At the funeral, his brother's wife Gloria ( Miranda Richardson ) and her daughter Doreen ( Rachel Leigh Cook ) are wary of Jack's attempts to reach out to them, but when he learns that his brother's death was no accident, Jack forms an uneasy alliance with Doreen to find the killers and deal out his own brand of justice. Get Carter is based on the novel Jack's Return Home by Ted Lewis , which was previously filmed in 1971 with Michael Caine as the gangster seeking revenge. Caine also appears in this remake as Cliff, the boss of Jack's late brother; Mickey Rourke , Alan Cumming , and Gretchen Mol also highlight the supporting cast. — Mark Deming |
