Fall Time (1995)

Rate: 3
Viewed: 5/16

5/16: Fall Time is a wretched homoerotic, Reservoir Dogs wannabe mess that serves a good example of actors earning their paycheck.

Mickey Rourke is better than this crap. I can't believe he said the lines with a straight face. His character has a stupid moment at the end when he challenged the kid to shoot him. And he does, killing him in the process.

Here's another that'll never happen in real life: a sexually luxurious female raping a male doofus. Really, explain to me the logic of it. In the meantime, why doesn't Stephen Baldwin's character immediately kill the two captives and move on? I'm not sure why he has to pour so much emotion by breaking down and crying as if he's going to deliver an Oscar-winning performance.

All in all, Fall Time fails miserably for trying to be a cool 50's gay picture.
