One of Bronson's European action movies and certainly not a bad one, although some reviewers will always want to say negative things about Charlie, because, well, he is Charlie. A much bigger problem in this (as in many more of his films) is the presence of Mrs Bronson, Jill Ireland. She was always in on the contract to get Charles himself in, as she was really a horrible actress most of the time in my opinion. In all his films in which she performs, she always has a role in the corner somewhere, as a hooker, as a hippie, as someone's friend. Where Charlie usually didn't say much, she said too much, which might have been the secret of their marriage. Anyway, Cold Sweat is in a brilliant R2 DVD from Canal Plus now, so stop arguing about poor film quality and fading colors and all that. One thing struck me as odd when you look at the actors and actresses involved. Some were very popular and much asked for names, whilst there are at least 4 or 5 people involved who only made 1 film, this one. Notably the girl who played Bronson's daughter here could have done some more roles I gather, but you never know what happened.
