★★★★★ · First time really watching this one... · Londell · 2024-08-09
I loved it! This film simply draws you in from the first frame of the movie, takes you on one heck of a rollercoaster ride at the end, and leaves you with one very important lesson at the end: DON'T LET THE LITTLE HEAD DO ANY THINKING FOR YOU.

Loved finding this! Enjoy and take the time to look at the scenery of SF and Acapulco so long ago.
