Instant Karma (1990)
Well-meaning story
Okay. So the story didn't appeal to anybody who watched it. Personally, I liked it because, however lacking-in-everything that he hero may have seemed, EVERYBODY DESERVES A CHANCE AT HAPPINESS. This movie showed how this guy, who like everybody has his ups and downs, has things turn around for him, in the midst of all other forms of confusion. True, he nearly blows it with his insecurity, but who hasn't at one time or another. The end shows him face-to-face with his dream-girl; presumably, he's about to get another chance as the story ends. I guess it's how the viewer looks at the story.

Why I liked this buried treasure
This is indeed a realistic movie, which must have seemed pretty graphic at the time. I was in my early teens when it was released, and I grew up in an old-fashioned manner; therefore, I was very naive. I knew that there were kids in my age bracket, who were active, but I thought they were few and far between. Like I said, I was very naive. Like many, I found the ending of the movie quite shocking, but also I have to agree that this is what really happens. The leading lady is a girl whom you like and dislike intensely at the same time. All in all, I think the story is good for reminding younger people of the dangers, and that life is unpredictable. Still, you must live it and take the ups with the downs. This movie was good for pointing that out. In conclusion, I wonder what has become of the actors an actresses.
