Orin D @RT64117979 Aug 16 This is one of the finest films I have seen in quite some time. Paul Schrader the writer/director. is @ his"Taxi Driver" top form & the great actor George C. Scott is superb in a role which has many dimensions. @ one point I didn't even recognize him. Season Hubley who plays a prostitute who helps Scott's character look for his daughter is also marvelous. Their interactions lend the film profound depth. I will watch this one again w/ my wife tomorrow & more times over the coming years. Do not miss this fabulous film & let your friends know about it. Finally, Peter Boyle is also topnotch as a detective who aids Scott in his search. The depiction of this degraded world of is chilling. BRAVO!!

Really well made all around. It does a great job exploring themes of faith/religion, porn, trauma, and at the end of the day people who we think we have nothing in common well we aren't that different. It poses lots of interesting ideas. Honestly the best part is when Scott & and the girl go on the road together and you see these two fasinating characters interact with each other. I wouldn't have minded if the film would've been a road movie with the two of them together. Such a interesting opportunity. It's a very interesting window into seeing what the porn industry was like in the 70's pre internet era. It does a great job immersing you in the world of sleaze with a character who acts as our anchor. Very good direction also. If there are areas it struggles is outside of Scott who is excellent in this especially at the end, no one else really gets much in the way of character arcs.

See more Christian K @ckacar 07/09/2025 A grimy descent into the porn underworld, it honestly could of gone a lot wilder and expansive, but it plays its cards tight and keeps its leads motive and performance focused. See more john h @RT11274104 06/02/2025 A well-written work by Paul Schrader and one of the best examples of "rabbit hole" movies. Hardcore portrays a subtle subtext and theme of the relationship between a daughter and father and the lengths one will go to bring a loved one back from a dark present. See more Read all reviews
