The makeup they used on him was perfect too. I used to think jokingly that it was like his character Johnny Handsome was going thru his facial reconstructive surgery and they just quit without an explanation!
Goldie was more than that to him. She was the one person alive who treated him human, who made him happy. Now that she's gone, there's only one thing in life that mattered most to Marv now.
Just love that beginning scene. Just shows Marv's incredible power and the will driving him on. That creaking and groaning of the steel bars as he bends them, the crumbling of the bricks and morter as it starts to give. The comedic "CLONK" when the bars and section of wall falls upon him stands up, dusts himself off..."lets go." Dont think you can get more badass as Marv!!!!!
Agreed. However, I always thought there's also a certain humor in this film that was utterly absent from the graphic novel. Perhaps it was a byproduct of the now moving images, of the various performances. In this scene, I wouldn't have minded if Marv, as he gets up after falling down with the bars, lets out a little "Ouch". Then turned around and said, "let's go." It's not a big thing, but I think it would have offered a tiny glimpse of humanity in all the carnage he dishes out. But no biggie, Rourke carried this film either way.
Marv is a titular Barbarian stereotype thrown into modern times. I often compare him to Conan the barbarian added a few psychotic tendencies about coats....

I miss movies like this. Incompetent women making stupid decisions and getting humiliated or killed for it. A lot more realistic than how women are depicted in movies today. No wonder hollywood is dying.
First rated R movie I saw by myself in theaters when I was 17. Loved it then. Bought the dvd when it came out, which came with a comic issue from the original Frank Miller material. Must have watched this movie a dozen times that summer. Now all this time later I'm binging all these clips on youtube and realizing I quote this movie by accident almost daily. It's actually insane lmao truly a great flick
There's something very genuine and likeable about it. It's like he wants to make sure they're on the same page, and wants to reassure her. Very charismatic imo. Just my interpretation
That's only modified ones, gang-members in LA used to cut the spring to make them full-auto. Amateur gun smiths ended up making the gun keep firing until the mag emptied. Cause one LAPD officer his life, he was tasked with shooting the Mac-10 found by the gang-members but once he pulled the trigger the recoil ended up making the barrel go up, he lost control and ended up blowing his head off.

Guy is a saint compared to most of hollywood. Baffling why people have always given him such a hard time. His looks going downhill so badly wasn't even all down to drug use either, he had unfixable injuries from boxing. Alot of people forget the guy wasn't just an actor he was a professional boxer.
I know this movie was supposed to be based off a comic book but my god is it ever a masterpiece by itself just everything about it is fantastic Frank Miller is a genius
There are so many good movies but i keep going back to these 2 as some of the most satisfying ones to watch. Not because i concur or relate with these struggles but because it’s a movie and it just satisfies me when he gets vengeance… what movies Are supposed to be! Pure entertainment
@@teddybeer6206 I know how they started lol, but technically it’s still a graphic novel series. Have you read any of them?

I guess they’re interchangeable to some degree. I was just being a smartass with my initial comment 🙂
It makes sense. Cops were given orders to bring him in alive if possible. Same reason the lil freak Harry Potter puts him in cage instead of finishing him. They wanted to paint him as killer of whores in order to relieve pressure on Kevin and his patron Rourke.
@@markae0 The weapons they had with them were Mac-10s, which was specifically designed for close quarters engagement. Lots of opportunities opened up where they wouldnt have shot their friends but because plot armor decided to take out their batons instead.
This isn't a movie that pretends to be "realistic", if you view it that way.. you missed the whole point of the movie. Might as well watch game of thrones and say.. this is dumb, dragons don't exist.
@@chadlaflamme7942 Hate to break it to you, buddy. But part of the fun of these movies is that they indeed do put some emphasis of realism while having characters do insane things, that said its still a terrible gimmick to just have a bunch of goons standing there doing nothing as some random guy starts taking out their friends one by one when they have a clear as day opportunity to lay him out easily. I take it you’re that one guy that whines “x has zombies in it so who cares” when the existence of something unreal actually makes the real things feel more legit. So nice fallacy.

Bought the movie at a thrift store to add to my DVD collection, $2 well spent

Never piss Marv off while wearing a fine coat.
Amazing direction and cinematography. Rodriguez is one of the greats

I just realized the call back from the bar scene when Dwight talks about Marv being on battlefield and swinging an axe.
0:54 the fact that marv broke those bars gives me chills
The classic comic book super strength.
It's less unrealistic than you think.
When defeat all the Simps, Marv is the final boss.
Here is the moral of the story.....
" Don't wear a mighty fine coat around Marv" LoL 😂

This movie is just awesome
Absolutely brilliant..cant get enough ..
This was a complete puzzle. Without all the pieces of acting, directing, set design, production… it wouldn’t be what it is - a masterpiece.
