Too slapskick kills interesting idea
8 March 2002
I rented this because I'm a big fan of Jackson and Cage and thought this would be vintage work by them. Indeed it was and I did enjoy the decent acting they did. However, they didn't really have much to work with. The idea of the film was pretty interesting and it got my attention at first. However, it kept switching from half serious tenseness to stupid slapstick. Eventually, the slapstick wins out and is suck my preachy racist diatribes. Dabny Coleman was his usual self, which was OK, but the slapstick sunk him too.
