      There are surprises outside the routine, and there are many extras

      This is a film made twenty years ago, and the male and female protagonists are all uncles and aunts. The man is very heroic, not very handsome, but the woman is very sexy, especially when I see her smiling at the end, she is really one of the most attractive. It is said that the two have been married for a long time in real life. Fairy couple. I really like the translated name of "Mandarin Ducks", which fits the plot very well.
          After reading it, it is really "only envious of mandarin...

      That gritty smell of the 90s

      A few remarks:

      1. Rhythm and tension. Fist to the flesh, bloody knives, headshots with guns, well-planned crimes, thrilling drag racing chases, interlocking and tense gunfights duels, surly villains, and of course the least of which are handsome guys and beauties The lingering moment, the gorgeous performance of the sexy goddess... The movie covers almost all the characteristics of the high-quality R-rated films of the 90s. Some people think that this rhythm is still not...

      Belonging to the rough and perverse of that era - "The Road to Escape"

      1994 was an incredible year for movies, my favorite action movie "Life and Death", and my favorite director Edward Zwick's "Burning Years". Then the famous "Forrest Gump", "The Shawshank Redemption", "Pulp Fiction", "The Lion King", "True Lies", "Interview with the Vampire", "This Killer Isn't Too Cold", "Four Weddings" and a funeral". "Alive" in domestic words. It's been 20 years~

      Baldwin was so handsome when he was young. He and Basinger were really good actors. They played so well together. They should have been a couple in reality at that...

    Movie quotes

    • [At Benyon's compound]

      Jack Benyon: Thought I'd never see you again. The news said one dead.

      Doc McCoy: [drops the bag] Three dead. Hansen got jumpy and shot a guard, and Rudy got ambitious and killed Hansen, then he lost his head and tried to kill me.

      Jack Benyon: How's your wife?

      Doc McCoy: Let's cut up this money. I wanna get outta here.

      Jack Benyon: I don't like complications.

      Doc McCoy: Well, you pull these kinds of jobs, you take those chances.

      Jack Benyon: You know, McCoy? You and I are two of a kind.

      Doc McCoy: No, I don't think so. I like to do my own dirty work. I never much like guys like you, crooks that want to look respectable.

      Jack Benyon: [chuckles] You still don't get it, do ya? That's funny, because I've always heard what a smart operator you are. So let's just look at the situation: One, a very attractive young woman. Two, the woman's husband, a killer and a thief, serving a long sentence in a Mexican hellhole. Three, a businessman, lots of power and influence, a fella who can easily get the husband a pardon. But why should he? Well... one simple reason, the obvious reason: Money. But maybe there are other considerations. The wife is very attractive and she proves to be willing. Very willing. She sees an opportunity and she takes it. Who can blame her? She's tired of life on the run. Her husband, he's a loser. She wants something better, and so the inevitable happens. A very... intimate alliance. A very pleasurable alliance, enjoyed by both parties both vigorously and repeatedly. Enjoyed. And then the moment arrives. The husband is baited to a remote place. A place... well, Doc, kinda like this.

      [Carol sneaks into Benyon's place with her gun, unbeknownst to Doc and Jack]

      Jack Benyon: Don't think too badly about your wife, Doc. After all, you were locked up in prison. She is a stunningly, healthy young woman.

      [Carol fires five rounds at Benyon, killing him as he falls on the patio; Doc, pointing the gun, is shocked at Carol for killing him, but relents]

      Doc McCoy: [picks up Carol's gun and the bag] I see you've been practicing.

    • [At the Amtrak's Flagstaff station, Carol, putting change into the slot, is about to put the bag of money in a locker when a man arrives]

      Red Shirt: [grabs the bag] Let me help you with that.

      Carol: No, it's okay.

      Red Shirt: No, no. It's a big bag.

      [the man puts the bag into the locker, close and locks it]

      Red Shirt: [hands Carol the key] There ya go.

      Carol: Thank you.

      Red Shirt: Glad to help.

    • [In the motel room, Fran and Rudy are having sex. Fran is moaning in pleasure as Harold, tied up in a chair, drags himself to the opened door to find Fran cheating on him as they're performing the woman-on-top position]

      Harold Carvey, DVM: [screams] Hey! HEY!

      Fran Carvey: [laughs] It's Harold!

      [Fran and Rudy laugh as they cover themselves]

      Rudy Travis: Harold, get back in there, ya pervert.

      [Rudy shuts the bathroom door on him; Harold screams and groans in anger and agony]
