Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Charley Varrick (1973)

Hard to categorize this one - it could've been a thriller, but it's so matter-of-fact. Matthau just quietly, emotionlessly, does what he needs to do to save himself. It's good, but the lack of emotion does hurt it, in my opinion.
