Review By r.Iilce George
Dally Nebraska Staff Writer
This has been a tough year for the
movie goer. True, there have been out
standing movies like "Ghostbusters,"
"Tightrope," "Purple Rain," and possibly
Movie
even "Bachelor Party." But these few
flicks have been shadowed by a rash of
bad movies. Kris Kristofferson's latest
lashpoint," is a leader In this category.
Flashpoint" has redeemable qualities.
The beauty of it is that the movie proba
bly will not last long at the Lincoln theat
ers. In reality, it may qualify for movie of
the week on one of three networks.
The biggest flaw in "flashpoint" is action
(or the lack of it.) The movie advertise
ments led me to believe that this was an
action-filled movie.
The advertising Is misleading
If moviegoers are not careful, they'll
think the script was written by inexpe
rienced writers. It's a shame, too, that
this wasnt a TV movie, because it could
be used to fill the 3 am. time slot when
the average viewer i3 not alert.
There may be some bright spots to this
movie. Kristoffcrson docs have some bright
moments, but his appearance is nowhere
near enough to save this drowning movie.
The main reason for this movie is so
vague is the plot. Yes, this movie does
have a plot, although it is very hard to
follow at times. Krtstofferson and Treat
Williams play CIA agents trying to thwart
a plot to assassinate a top official They
travel through thick and thin to find the
group responsible for the plan, but the
producers go way off base in this hunt.
"Flashpoint" h one of those movies that
comes and goes. If you have to read a
book and can't decide whether to read it
or go to this movie, read the book.
Help us. cover you.
