Artivels Undescribable Perfection
SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
preppy-3 **DEFINITE SPOILERS** Two Navy guys--gruff, old, mean Rock Reilly (Tom Berenger) and young, handsome, fun-loving Eddie Devane (William McNamara)--are assigned to transport a prisoner. Turns out she's a young beautiful blonde named Toni (Erika Eleniak). While driving her she tries to escape repeatedly. This leads to "comic" mishaps. However it turns out she really isn't a mean girl (just misunderstood)--Reilly becomes lovable--Devane falls in love with her (and vice versa)--and it all leads to a ridiculously improbable ending.As you can see the plot is just ridiculous (and predictable) and this is NOT a good movie--but I sort of liked it. Berenger and McNamara are very good and play off each other very well. Eleniak is beautiful and sexy and (surprisingly) not a bad actress. The situations they end up in are totally unbelievable and almost always unfunny but I laughed a few times. If you're watching this for t&a--forget it. It's about 50 minutes until Eleniak is in her underwear and another 20 minutes or so before she has a quick nude scene. As a gay guy I had no interest. Anyways McNamara shows more skin than her--he has a few scenes wearing nothing but underpants and once is totally nude. He's handsome and has a smooth, nicely toned body. As it is him and Eleniak became a couple after meeting in this movie. Also there are some familiar faces in small roles--Dean Stockwell, Crispin Glover, Seymour Cassel, Gary Busey, Frederic Forrest and Marilu Henner. Even director Dennis Hopper pops up in multiple roles! So, not a good movie but the acting is on target, there are funny moments and it has female AND male nudity. A pleasant time waster.
disdressed12 Chasers is billed as a comedy-which would be fine-if it were a comedy.in reality it's more like a drama/slash action film with some humour sparsely sprinkled here and there.very sparsely sprinkled.it is mildly entertaining,but not worth watching more than once-at least for a long time.that says a lot,considering the fact that Erica Eleniak is in it.alas even she cannot elevate this movie to anything beyond average.Dennis Hopper directed this movie-why i'm not sure.yes there is some action and Hopper himself has a completely ridiculous and pointless cameo.if you have nothing better to do,you could use up 101 minutes of your life on this movie.it's not the worst movie you've seen or will see.but it is ,put simply-blah.in other words a completely forgettable movie. 5 * because of Erica
Bjorn (ODDBear) Navy officials Berenger and McNamara are assigned to escort prisoner Eliniak to start serving time but their trip doesn't go all that smoothly.Despite the presence of the terribly annoying William McNamara, Chasers is really an O.K. way to spend less than two hours. Obviously it's not as good as 1973's The Last Detail but it has it's moments. Tom Berenger and Erika Eliniak compensate for McNamara and deliver good performances but the array of good cameos are sorely misused. Gary Busey and Crispin Glover provide a few chuckles but Dennis Hopper, Dean Stockwell and Marilu Henner have nothing to do here.Still, if you're in a forgiving frame of mind and keep your expectations low this film quite alright.
SanDiego Erika Eleniak is a gorgeous talent that I would enjoy seeing in a string of films showcasing her talent. She was the best thing about "Baywatch." Do you remember her getting kissed by Eliot in E.T.? Though it was a short scene, who could forget her? I've first followed her career in "Charles in Charge" (she played Stephanie) and in the remake of "The Blob." When she did a Playboy centerfold and Playboy video I couldn't wait to go out and buy a copy (the first and only reason I've ever purchased a Playboy). The video showed that there was real talent there, not just a centerfold's body. For a former child star to take that direction in her career and have it catapult her into stardom is unusual because most centerfolds don't have her talent. Her performance in "Under Seige" really made her a star and the remake of "The Beverly Hillbillies" showed she was really funny as did "Pyromanic's Love Story." If only this movie would have risen to her talent. Though Erika is really good, the movie stinks. Because of it I think Erika is going to be doing cheap thrillers for a while. Too bad, because she is a gifted actress and comedian that deserves roles similar to Julia Roberts, Sandra Bullock, and Meg Ryan. I will continue to watch anything she does because she is so wonderful, including this film, but she's the only good thing about it.
