Bad Writing, Bad Acting, Bad Directing, Good Righteous Brothers Tune

Rating: 5/10 (23 April 2000)

This is one of those movies that you feel like you SHOULD like. It's so noble. The scenery and special effects are quite good. But in the end it is just another mediocre movie starring Patrick Swayze. I don't like dramas that rely on characters doing the stupidest possible thing in order to keep the plot moving. I liked Demi Moore's performance (perhaps because her character is most sympathetic), and Tony Goldwyn gives a good effort, but Whoopi and Swayze's scenes made me cringe (particularly the bank scene). 5 out of 10
