about as suspenseful as watching the grass grow

Rating: Null/10 (10 January 1999)

This over-hyped piece of silliness had me laughing, and also questioning why I allowed myself to be talked into seeing it. I went with someone much younger than myself to see it, and she loved it...I suppose appreciating the subtle is something that is gained with age. Fishburne was terrible in this film - I think he was trying to distance himself from Ike Turner and signed up for the buff leader of this bad-ship lollipop. Sam Neil is likewise wasted in this film...Or should I say that perhaps everyone involved with the film was WASTED when they work on it. Zero flow. Abysmal cinematography. Moronic plot. Could have been worse, I guess....It could have been Romy and Michele's High School Reunion!
