1987 thriller
Rating: 13/20
Plot: Navy shenanigans.
God damn it! It's Gene Hackman again!
I don't remember Kevin Costner being this studly, but maybe I just like a man in uniform. There's a moment in this where he eats bugs off a windshield, and I couldn't figure out what the hell was going on.
There's also a moment when the "No Way Out" (thanks, Paul Anka) song is playing while Costner and Sean Young are going to town in a limo. Bill, the pervy limo driver, is watching eagerly. And then--boom! An obelisk! The whole thing is super sleazy, but it's probably my favorite part of the movie. Things get a little tired and cliched as the suspense is turned up, and then there's a twist that you can't see coming because it doesn't make a lick of sense.
Most of this movie is enjoyable.
