Movie Reviews of Chasers
Movie Review: A Classic Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a movie I had seen on TV a couple of times and finally managed to track down on DVD.
It was well worth it. The copy I have is remastered for 5.1 Home Theatre and in 16:9 widescreen.
The picture quality doesn't stand up to todays films but was still much better on DVD than it would have been on VHS.
The movie itself is fairly light hearted and entertaining similar to many other action/comedy/romance type movies & shows of the 80 & 90s. If you are a fan of those classic movies and programs like beverly hills cop, baywatch, police academy etc this movie would slot right in. If you are a fan of Erika Eleniak then this is a must have that you will not regret purchasing.

Summary: 4 Stars
This is certainly not a movie for the mind or for the soul. I won't even try to list the logical problems with this one, as my quota of 1000 words would just get me warmed up :-) Suffice it to say that if you are looking for a well-knit storyline that holds itself together, about turn right now.On the other hand, if you have an hour to fritter away and are not in a particularly picky/discriminating mood, give this one a shot. You might be surprised to find yourself grinning more often than you expected to :-)
My only kudos to Dennis Hopper is his choice of Tom Berenger. This is one heck of a good thespian, and he shines, even when cast in an otherwise silly, non-entity of a movie. Sure, Erika gets her share of attention, but mostly when she's baring it. And McNamara, well, I can't remember any other movie he was in, so I'll just say he has latent talent. A little too cute for this role, maybe.
You've probably read other reviews, so I won't bore you with a detailed storyline. Tom and McNamara are Navy guys sent to escort a prisoner from a Marine detention center. Turns out that the prisoner is a woman (Erika) and a slippery one at that. Several travails follow. Erika and McNamara fall for each other. Tom eventually helps the couple make off to Mexico or somewhere. Like I said, suspend your belief, all ye who enter here :-)
Tom plays his part to perfection, as the gruff, hardboiled, no-nonsense, sardonic military guy. I can't see anyone else better suited to this role. Watch out for a couple of hilarious scenes, when they land up at the marine detention center, and when they take a detour on their way back to base. Pretty funny 'camaraderie' too, with McNamara and a couple of sailor pinheads who want nothing more than to yank his chain.
Summary - with a couple of beers to help, what the heck, I think I actually enjoyed it!
