Surprisingly slow and devoid of action and interest - Tequila Sunrise review by PB
Given that this is an 80s movie staring Mel Gibson and Kurt Russel about a drug dealer and a cop, I expected this to be somewhere along the lines of Lethal Weapon or Tango and Cash. Not so. This is in fact a movie which is almost completely devoid of action. That wouldn't be a bad thing if the dialogue was snappy and the plot interesting, but Tequila Sunrise is in reality very slow and takes a long time to do anything vaguely captivating.
The cast is excellent of course, especially Michelle Pfeiffer. but as a movie I found this rather dull. The most memorable aspect, in all honesty, was the Dave Grusin score.
