Waste of time and talent .........

This send up of noir, with prodigious spaghetti western influence, is a real disaster. The director must have just called the cast together with a vague outline of the script, and simply turned them loose, hoping for the best. Dean Stockwell is almost unrecognizable as a nerdy I.R.S. agent, and James Russo plays a cartoon-like villain. The weird soundtrack is sort of a conglomeration of Ennio Morricone western spaghetti and doo-wop, and is without question, the best part of this scrambled mess. Naturally you get a good dose of car chases, and explosions, along with all the other nonsense. In summary, a waste of time and talent. - MERK

Bounty Hunter hunting for the big bucks.

Excellent movie - Finally found the video after searching for a while. The quality of the tape was not the best, but I really enjoyed watching this movie for the second time. Flea made me remember this one, since I saw it the first time(ca.1990). He should have gotten an Oscar for his performance!

funny, and that's what matters

this movie is a great moment of fun if you're willing to accept anything happening on screen as believable (which is though, I must admit it). Stockwell is as great as always and Dylan McDermott really seems to enjoy his character. Plus the too often underrated Pamela Gidley and a bunch of actors who sometimes look undirected but having fun themselves, Blue Iguana will never make it to the "greatest movies of all time" list but is will make you have a good moment, which seems to be his goal.

Yano Anaya was great in this movie

This is one of my favorites. Dylan McDermott and Yano Anaya accepts a high risk offer from the I.R.S. to recover $20 million from a crooked bank in a sleepy little town of Diablo. Alot of people haven't heard of it but it's awesome!! And it even has a cameo appearence by Dean Stockwell. 5 ***** all the way!!!

Noir Send Up

This is one of those movies that you see, have no expectations for, and it makes you bust a gut. I had the same reaction to Strange Brew when I first saw it. I love the steamy south-of-the-border feel, the noir farce, and the over-the-top characters. This is the kind of movie, if it had had a wider audience, that could have a cult following.

Jessica Harper holds Dylan McDermott at gunpoint with a small handgun. It is the unique four-barrel COP derringer in caliber .357 Magnum. When the trigger is pulled the firing pin rotates around to each of the four cartridges it holds.
