Night Of The Juggler (1980) ****

Night Of The Juggler (1980) is an unbelievably tense cat and mouse chase with insane stunts, breathtaking physicality, sleazy personas, a wonderful cast, and amazing dialogue—all set against the scuzzy backdrop of late '70s NYC. James Brolin takes no shit and gives zero fucks as a father who will literally do anything to rescue his kidnapped daughter. A true time capsule that can never be replicated.
