Movie Reviews of Quicksilver
Movie Review: Quicksilver
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw this movie on HBO a long time ago, and I have been a fan of Jami Gertz and also Kevin Bacon, and this was the first movie I think I saw Paul Rodriguez show his talent. I waited and waited for the right price to arrive, and now I have my DVD.
Summary of Quicksilver
A HEART-STOPPING CHASE ... AND THE ULTIMATE TEST OF COURAGE. Kevin Bacon is pedaling for all he's worth as a bicycle maessenger on a collision course with danger in QUICKSILVER. As he darts through the city traffic making his rounds in the fast-paced world of maverick messengers Jack Chasey (Bacon) uncovers a sinister web of murder and intrigue. When he falls for Terri (Jami Gertz) a fellow messenger who has become the pawn of an unscrupulous drug dealer it's up to Jack to act quickly. Speeding toward the final - and deadly - showdown it's a heart-stopping chase and the ultimate test of Jack's courage. Set to the driving beat of a dynamic soundtrack featuring Roger Daltrey the pulse of urban America comes alive in a story with more twists and turns than a rush-hour shortcut. When it comes close to the free-wheeling exhilaration of QUICKSILVER.System Requirements:Running Time: 106 Min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?ACTION/ADVENTURE Rating:?PG UPC:?043396078864 Manufacturer No:?07886A hotshot stockbroker bets it all--and loses it all--in one day, effectively ruining all his customers while ending his career. So, naturally, he turns to that old stockbroker standby: he becomes a bicycle messenger. Kevin Bacon may have made this film simply to extend the strands of the Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon game; it's hard to imagine any other reason. Otherwise, this mid-'80s film stands as yet another example of a movie influenced by MTV without understanding what MTV does. Eventually, Bacon leads the exploited masses of messengers in an uprising against unfair labor practices by the evil bosses. There's an original concept. Notable as yet another film to give a role to the dazzlingly untalented Jami Gertz. --Marshall Fine
