One Away

Cheesy soundtrack. Corny dialogue. Delicious film editing. Not enough for a satisfying meal....but good enough for a midnight snack.

The plot concerns a prisoner's planned escape from a South African jail. No, it's not political....unless you're involved with the Amnesty for Gypsies foundation. The movie moves along at a brisk pace (even though it's going nowhere), the actors are all nice-looking folks, and there is some pretty darn good racing sequences involving motorcyclists dirtbikin' their way over the South African terrain. I kinda liked it.

Worth tracking down if you collect on the actors or like motorcycles. Elke is gorgeous and Patrick Mower gets to spend most of the film shirtless. It's that kind of a guilty pleasure movie.
