    not the best thing since sliced bread but definitely an alright action film.

    With apologies to Andy Micak, I defy all of Flixster to find a Swayzier movie than this: it's worse than road house. How did Swayze EVER get work??

    This is arguably the funniest movie ever made, but you're not supposed to be laughing... particularly bad are the bit players dru...( read more)dged up from community theatre to play Swayze's wife, the Chief Investigator and loveable loser Wes. While the action sequences were bearable - and thank god this movie was mostly action sequences - it is probably the worst-acted movie ever made... when Meat Loaf turns in a film's strongest performance, you're in serious trouble.

    It's an ok Flick, but lot's of continuity mistakes in the editing.

    Another undderated movie!! Patrick Swayze is alright, but the co-stars are very good - namely Meatloaf as the bible-spouting raving lunatic! Good old truck driving action!!!
