Lisa Bettany’s review:
I watched this on a plane. The story line was preachy and infuriating. It contained some of the most irritatingly self-involved characters. After 30 mins, I took the moral high ground and fell asleep.
Y'know, I think I agree with that. As a film, it was meh, but I really loved the feel of it. I'm a sucker for fun 80s movies (e.g. Footloose, Take Me Home Tonight, and…I'm totally blanking out on other ones).
