    Obviously budget budget but creative cool shoot out during a raging storm. Nice Porsche Speedster that C Thomas Howl drives and a wild sex scene intercut during a violent assa

    I really like this low budget film which had a cool visual ending with a shoot out right in the middle of crashing waves and powerful storm.

    Waste of time...

    This movie is about a boy who stopped racing cars, owns a huge hotel and has money problems now. Loansharks will be eating him in one week.

    Then his ex-lover shows up. She brings a man with 2M cash. The ex messes up the new relation for the boy and makes love to the bad guy. Her 2M-friend gets killed, but the money can not be found...

    So far. This movie is a complete waste of time. All males are only 25 years of age or so. All females are dropped out models. The movie is very incredible, the story is very thin. The only positive point is the beautiful car of the boy (a Volkswagen Karmann?)

    A flat, weak, insipid film, with hardly no turns

    What happened to C Thomas Howell? Really? He has to resort to crap. He's made so many crappy B films, more than I've had hot dinners. The frightening aspect is he's still making them. Just check out his latest-Sick people. This quite flat, most of nothing happening movie screams B grade from the start. Just watch how cheaply the Movie's title is flung across the screen. The film's only merit is watching Howell (in not his best performance either) as a former racing car driver and ex girlfriend (Carrere), who means trouble, get it on. Baldwin as Howell's friend who helps him run this Mexican resort, that's quite a beautiful place, kind of resembles the apartment in Melrose Place, ceases to exist. He should of told the director to go and shove it. I don't think we even saw Howell doing his car racing. What I can remember about this flick, is that it was mostly flat and had me, mystified a few times, like saying to myself, "Is this how far this stories gonna be taken. There's little character or story development here, and as a B grade, this is one of the worst B flicks Howell has done, his first actually being the much better To Protect And Serve, and talking about serving, the film only serves little purpose in watching Carrere, or admiring the beautiful surrounds of this resort. Where did the script go?

    *Yawn*

    This is one of the few times for me where a movie has been so dreary, I've become physically tired. After the first twenty minutes, I almost fell asleep. Ridiculously padded, and with endless helicopter shots, this movie is a real chore to sit through, with Howell particularly annoying. At least Tia Carrere brings beauty and some likability by participating.

    Lousy

    "Treacherous" stinks and sinks at all levels. While supposedly a suspenseful good guys vs bad guys thriller, "Treacherous" falls on its face with a shallow plot, awful character development, silly script, terrible screenplay, lousy action, etc. There is some pretty scenery including Carrerra but that's about it. Pass on this one.
