What was the most evil thing that Jack Travis did?


What was the most evil thing he did in your opinion?

reply

A tie between shooting the lock up cop in the back and burying his man in the concrete whilst alive...

reply

It was his henchman who threw the guy in the pit.

reply

The cement thing. He had to have his goons also help him.

He could have just shot him a few times and then bury him in the cement.

"Be excellent to each other...And....Party on!"

Shooting the young cop, the 22 year old.



I'd say this cloud is Cumulo Nimbus.
Didn't he discover America?
Penfold, shush.

reply

I'd have to agree. Even though the cement thing was the most brutal, at least Smitty had betrayed Travis so in a way he had it coming for him. The young cop was just doing his job and he hid behind a barrel to save himself. I agree that this is the most evil thing that Travis did.

his mustache.

Shooting the young cop on his birthday.

I'd have to agree that this is the most evil thing he did in the movie. I mean the cement thing was evil too, but Smitty had it coming for him. The young cop was not even firing at Travis. I agree it was the most evil thing he did in the movie. By the way who was more evil? Travis or Wah Sing Ku? Personally I find Wah Sing Ku far more evil.

Betrayed the police. And then using his know-how and connections was stealing ammo to sell it to such guys like Tyrone.

Shooting Billy Phelps

What about the young cop on his birthday.

reply

he didnt know who he was killing that young cop, self defence

with billy phelps he breaks into a cop shop and walks down the corridor, opens the door and then....bang! plus billy had worked for him

reply

But Billy Phelps had betrayed Travis. Remember that Billy Phelps together with Smitti did that bank robbery and this jeopardized everything. Plus Billy getting caught, he could have given information to the police about Travis. Billy became a liability to Travis because he did that robbery. So he had it coming for him.

reply

billy phelps did not betray him, he simply got caught by riggs in the armoured car chase
travis specifically set out to kill billy in a vicious and brutal manner obviously so he could not talk to the cops

the young cop being killed was incidental and anyway he should not have been there in the first place

reply

Why do you say that the young cop should not have been there, and why do say that it was incidental?

reply

riggs and murtaugh only reluctantly agreed to let the young cop come with them to chase the bad guys, he obviously lacked experience and was constantly told by them to KEEP YOUR HEAD DOWN
he was a plot device to give greater motivation for riggs and murtaugh to kill travis as he was killed by an armoured piercing bullet that were stolen by travis off the cops
in the climatic scene u will notice that riggs killed travis with an armoured piercing bullet, as it was a bullet that went thru a JCB that travis was driving
