An April 25, 2015, Internet review of "The Dead Pool" (1988) —

"The biggest problem with this movie is the fact that 
we have Liam Neeson and Clint Eastwood on the screen 
at the same time and they are not facing off 
in a battle of badass action stars. 
Neeson wasn’t really considered to be much more than 
a supporting character at this point in his career, 
but his recent action run proves that he is the goods."

I prefer the remarks of J. G. Ballard linked to here on May 11.

Ben Brantley in The New York Times  today on a Broadway opening:

“As Christopher navigates his way through an increasingly
unfamiliar landscape, both physical and emotional, the arcs
of his adventures are drawn into being.

So are the shards of sensory overload.”

Arc — See a search for Line at Infinity:

Shard — See Shard and Pythagorean Selfie:
