Out of Bounds plays like an explosion at the cliche factory. Go to Full Review

Everything in-the movie is preposterous and/or predictable, but Iowa farm boys may enjoy the fantasy of one of their own taking on the big bad city and winning. Go to Full Review

thiago s @Thiagostone Oct 6 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Michael H. @CaptainBeardo Jul 30 The wife said this movie was a classic?! So I watched it with her and neither one of us remembered ever seeing it before. This movie is definitely not a classic. Not a terrible story but the characters and acting was not good. Anthony’s character went from a country boy stupid and new to the big city to an action hero by the end of the film. Pass on this movie. See more paul s 04/08/2022 I like it because it's bonafide LA in the 80s. It's full of mad 80s cheese, but between the dated visuals and soundtrack, it's a nostalgic kick. It's also interesting seeing Anthony Michael Hall at such a young age. It makes me feel young, but old. It's very unrealistic on many levels. No wonder it didn't do so great at the box office. Nonetheless, I enjoyed it as a kid and it was worth seeing it again. See more 10/16/2021 The only redeeming qualities about this movie were the actress Jenny Wright and it was an 80s flick with an 80s soundtrack. See more 10/28/2014 It's not the best movie ever but it has 80's charm, music and wit. See more 04/22/2014 Great to see hall's range See more Read all reviews
