Review:
A rather fun little action thriller with a few silly elements and oddly Meryl Streep being a silly river rafter with an uninterested husband and kids. She decides to take the boy and husband rafting on a nice vacation in the wild. Things are great until they come across a group of other rafters that are clearly up to no good. They've robbed a location and are now on the getaway with a bag of money and a gun. Kevin Bacon and John C. Reilly head up the bad guys who are trying to be nice but they need the river guide for escape. It's got a few moments of excitement, particularly when it comes to especially dangerous rapids that they are being forced to endure. It's predictable and a bit hammy but the scenery is nice, the acting is fine and if you want an adventure movie with a bit of danger this should satisfy.
Availability: On DVD
