For a 90's movie it holds up, Moved at a decent pace and had a fairly good cast. It's kinda dramatic yet not terribly heavy. The main character had times where he gets all after school special but in turn its laughable and tolerable. Modine is his usual self and didn't really have a break through performance, not to say it's not a good performance it's still as digestible as the way frozen pizza is after 20 mins of warming up to it. I'd say the storyline is the real star of the show. My only complaint is I wanted more Fairuza, cause well, she's kinda rad.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. It's not an art film or anything. It's just enjoyable for a guy like me.
