FORMAT: Laserdisc
TIME RIDDEN / FILM LENGTH: 91 minutes
DISTANCE RIDDEN WHILE VIEWING: 22.4 miles
TOTAL CINEMA MILES LOGGED: 7926.3 miles
SYNOPSIS: A law student is pursued by the mob and local police after being involved in the death of a mobster.
CONCEPT IN RELATION TO THE VIEWER: A chase film in the genre of North by Northwest.
PROS AND CONS: Not a bad film for what it is. A film with young talent and competent visuals that keeps you watching to find out what happens next.
Supposedly, Patrick Dempsey is supposed to be a current heart-throb, but here is comes off a bit on the nerdy side and wiser than his young looks would lead the viewer to believe.
They spent a lot of money on stunts in this film. There are a lot of wrecked cars, explosions and gunplay. That said, it takes a healthy dose of suspension of reality by the time you get to the last 20 minutes of the film.
This film is a part of my LaserDisc Collection.
Clicking on the title will take you to the Internet Movie Database (IMDB) entry for this film.
This film was viewed while exercising on my recumbent cycle. A summary of my time spent working out on my journey through movie-land can be found on Strava.com.
