Sometimes you kidnap the wrong woman .............

Kidnapping a wealthy woman can lead to problems, especially if her husband is not only unwilling to pay the kidnappers, but flees with the ransom money. An uneasy alliance is quickly formed and a pursuit through the Washington State Forest ensues. There are some surprise revelations along the way, a bit of dark humor, and a lot of emotional hand holding. Guns miraculously turn up in a bus first aid kit, and at a fish hatchery, aiding the survivors of a bus wreck as they flee. Ed Begley Jr. and Miguel Ferrer provide some stability to the otherwise amateurish acting, and there are a couple of exciting moments, otherwise this is easily forgettable. -MERK

One hell of a ride !

Two brother criminals try to ransom the banker Ed Begley Jr. whose wife they have kidnapped. But the meeting is not kept: at the last moment, Begley Jr. conceives a stratagem and flee with the money. As a result, his wife, outraged, decides to help her kidnappers... The intrigue is somewhat lacking, but overall the film is effective, not devoid of a few humorous touches in a superb natural setting.

Reasonable Sunday afternoon B Movie

The plot couldn't be simpler but the acting is reasonable to good, and the nature scenery (British Columbia come Oregon) is beautiful. This is an entertaining action movie with some character development and a bit of romance (good and bad) that didn't take a lot of effort to follow. None the less the film keeps your attention because the scenes change so rapidly.

There is no gratuitous foul language, but a bit of silly shooting.

It is not overly clear or credible why the larger group of burdened pursued, keep managing to outrun their fleeter-footed pursuers. And it is never clear why the pursued didn't try to deceive their advantaged pursuers.

5.7 / 10 on my scale
