Charles Bronson delivers a very strong performance in "Borderline". Bronson was underrated as an actor but he really does deliver the goods in this movie. His supporting cast is also good. "Borderline" may skip a beat here and there in the writing department but its heart is always in the right place. That's why any bumps in the road are easily forgiven. I know it might not be saying much but this is Bronson's best film of the 1980s.
