	Marathon Man (1976) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Marathon Man starts off rather slowly, and for the first hour at least, it feels as if you're watching a human drama rather than a thriller.
		However, unlike a lot of thrillers; Marathon Man uses this time to create characters and establish the situation, which ultimately pays off later on in the film when the movie really gets going.
		The characters are the central theme in this movie, and had the movie have ended differently it could have unravelled everything that it had created, but the movie's end is absolutely perfect and does the entire movie justice.
