Get Carter stars
Michael Caine as
Jack Carter, a powerful British gangster out for blood. His brother has been murdered in Newcastle, prompting
Carter to declare a one-man war on other racketeers.
Carter must also get his niece out of the life she is leading as an actress in
pornographic films. Now that he is a loose cannon,
Carter must be eliminated.
Get Carter is typical
action fare of the 1970s in that there are virtually no "good guys" -- in fact, the assassin is probably the most likable character in the piece! Originally rated X for violence and female nudity,
Get Carter was reclassified as an R after subsequent
crime films became even more bloodthirsty.
