| The Chase (1994) Cast:Charlie Sheen,Kristy Swanson,Henry Rollins,Cary Elwes Sheen stars as a fugitive who kidnaps a rich tycoon�s daughter and tries to outrun the cops in this very underrated actioner which is quite more enjoyable then one would expect. Don�t get me wrong, movies with a hip attitude tend to annoy me more then anything else, however surprisingly The Chase�s hipness is pushed so far into satire that it works for straight forward comedy, however despite what critics say, this movie isn�t terrible as one would think, it�s certainly no oscar winner but it sure delivers what it promises and it doesn�t have a dull moment. Sheen and Swanson work so well together that they make the ridiculous story work, plus the tone is tounge in cheek and yet not too over the top making The Chase entertaining. It certainly beats the disasterous The Big Hit which labored to do the same thing, The Chase did effortlessly. D.Adam Rifkin *** |
