White Rush

Twists and turns which cannot be more unbelievable. Poor Judd Nelson. Poor Me! Where has my youth idol gone? Guess I have to wait for "Breakfast Club 2 - The Reunion"... "White Rush" features some pretty faces and the plot itself could have been quite okay. But too many coincidences and too many stupid decisions by too many stupid protagonists are responsible make you laugh at moments when the director probably wanted you to be astonished.

When a group of friends who are camping in the wilderness stumble onto a drug deal gone fubar. The crooked cop of the bunch decides to take the stash of coke for himself, this of course doesn't sit well with the one remaining living criminal, Brian (Judd Nelson) who takes one of their number, Eva (Tricia Helfer), hostage as he needs the coke back before a beautiful hit-woman for the drug cartel comes gunning for him.

This movie was extremely cliché, but it was also more enjoyable than Mark Lester's previous film that I just watched "Hitman's Run" yet still a far cry from his earlier movies that are classics such as Commando and Class of 1984"

Judd Nelson will return in my next review for "bad kids go to hell"

While watching this about halfway through I turned to my wife and said, luv "The Breakfast Club" kids grew up!!! She started laughing cause that's exactly how the main actors come off right down to dress & look.

it was ok just low budget.

I took this movie home understanding what I was getting myself into. But really it wasn't that bad! Friends discovered that they could make money selling cocaine. Their decision to do so places their life in jeopardy. The effects were very mediocre and same to the acting but it was a different plot. The ending was pretty off though and I wasn't very satisfied with it. The quality of the movie did not look much better than a dv cam but it was quite a good effort. If you like really low budget films and thats all you like, than perhaps you should give this one a look. I would give this film a 3.5 - 4 if comparing it with bigger films.

I give the directing a 3, acting a 5, plot a 7, editing a 4. Not a bad movie but rent Crash, North Country, or 11:14 instead.

Maybe it's because I started to get used in seeing Judd Nelson in movies that don't really fit my taste or that were poorly done...maybe it's because the last movie I've seen my most favorite actor in before this one was Dark Asylum which is one of the worst movies I ever watched from beginning to end... But "White Rush" was a positive surprise for me. I found the story quite exciting and I really got suspicious about who's the bad guy and who's the spy and who is trustworthy and who they should better avoid. I really wanted to know how the story would end, and the end was not a disappointment at all. For a change, it was neither all predictable nor completely far-fetched. The actors served their purpose, they played their roles believable, but there wasn't really much of a character development...but then again it wasn't supposed to be a character movie but an action movie, so I guess that's alright (but Judd Nelson is just such a genius character actor so that it's always a disappointment when he plays "flat" characters where he can't show his brilliance). It's not one of my most favorite movies, but it definitely did not leave me like "never again". I gave it 6/10 and I think that's well deserved.
