The Gauntlet
“Clint Eastwood is the man in the middle of The Gauntlet”
DramaActionCrimeThriller
Phoenix cop Ben Shockley is well on his way to becoming a derelict when he is assigned to transport a witness from Las Vegas. The witness turns out to be a belligerent prostitute with mob ties—and incriminating information regarding a high-ranking official.
VIBE
A grim, sun-baked descent into corruption and violence. This 70s crime thriller feels like a dusty, desperate chase across the desert, where every character is compromised and survival is the only prize.
