Licence to Kill (1989)
Yes, it's a British movie, and the title is spelled "Licence". So what if they changed it for the American release? That Doesn't make Lola Rennt's original title Run Lola Run.
Fun facts:
- The film can't decide what sort of tone it wants to take.Even the pre-title sequence flip-flops between lighthearted and almost jokey, and a dark, brutal murder/torture scene.
- Even though Felix Leiter's just-married bride was killed at the beginning of the film, by the end, he's recovering in hospital and seems happy as a clam!
- Wayne Newton plays a televangelist for a bogus meditation institute. The Book that he offers to give away for a donation of $100 is entitled Secrets of Cone Power Revealed."
- That minor bad guy? Yep. Benicio del Toro.
