Rating: 4 stars
Summary: PREPOSTEROUS BUT ENJOYABLE
Review: Brian Bosworth has presence; the ex footballer is an attractive leading man and hero figure. His acting ability won't win him any Oscars, but he delivers. In BLACK OUT, he plays banker John Grey who one day steps out in front of a car, gets amnesia and can't remember his previous life. Seems like he may be somebody named Wayne Garret, a vicious killer hooked up with a sadistic cadre led by the irrepressibly bad Brad Dourif. Having Dourif as a forceful kingpin is ludicrous, if for nothing else than his diminutive size. But Bosworth's wife is murdered and he goes all out to find out who he really is, leading him into the arms of a cocktail waitress (Claire Yarnell) and to a seedy nightclub called "Rebels" where the gang seems to hide out.
There are some really implausible plot twists and the way the mystery surrounding Grey is summed up is so quick you almost miss it!
For action, it's a good fun movie.
