 | Though I cannot deny that it is unbelievably cheesy, filled with practically every cliche one can imagine and contains tons of embarrassing dialogue (especially Kurt Russell's begging speech) and unconvincing love scenes (Mel, will you please kiss her like you mean it and stop squirming!), I LOVE this movie. It satisfies the romantic in my soul. Michelle Pfeiffer, J. T. Walsh and Raul Julia make it worthwhile. My favorite scene is when the former drug dealer, Mac, tells Jo Ann why he hired her lawyer, Andy, as his lawyer and why he felt he needed a veneer of respectability. Pure Magic! Don't you love it when a man will reform for the love of a woman?
No, it never will be a classic, but I enjoy it all the same. |

| But for me at least, I found it rather hard to root for Mel Gibson's character, given the fact that he was a major, major drug dealer. When the movie ended with him more or less riding off into the sunset with Michelle Pfeiffer and all the loot, I didn't find myself feeling exactly uplifted by it. Given the fact that the movie bent over backwards to depict Gibson as a loving father, a phenomenally successful businessman, and a super-stud, one might fairly say that this movie glamorizes drug-dealing. |

| I rent this movie ever so often just to luxuriate in the smaltzy Dave Grusin soundtrack and the beautiful eyes of all the leads-Mel Gibson, Michelle Pheiffer and Kurt Russell. The chemistry between the 3 of them is palapable and there are just some wonderful moments but overall the film is pretty lame, especially the last third. For some bizarre reason, I think Mel use a body double during the love scene in the hot tub. If you feel cheated however as I did, it is definately his bare tush in Lethal Weapon and he is breathtakingly beautiful in his blue bikini in Tim! |

| If you looking for a movie with talented actors at acting this is the movie you got to see. If you want to watch a movie with some comody mixed with crime and action with a touch of romance this is the one for you. I am not a huge fan of action movies that always have to have love in the air but this movie isn't bad with the plot it has that the action and romance fall into. If I and other reviewers give this movie five stars you should believe and say so yourself. |
