Assault on Prescient 13

Now this was one of my favorite films we watched in this class (following Dog Day). Assault does a phenomenal job of introducing the characters. The suspense throughout the entire film was executed perfectly, but particularly in the beginning. You know something is going to go down, but you're now sure what or with who. The dynamic between the characters in the prescient worked very well. You have the strong and confident woman, the witty convict and the respectable cop. One thing I liked most about the cop is that he had respect for the convict. He didn't treat him any differently simply because they needed to survive. This film combines brutal violence with witty jokes in a very entertaining and tasteful way.
