Let It Ride (1989)

Rate: 6
Viewed: 6/22

6/22: The last time I saw Let It Ride was in 1989, and I remembered it being a funny movie.

But now, it has aged a great deal and isn't exactly a laugh-a-thon. I realize that all took a risk in making the concept work and believe that they succeeded. It pretty much feeds on thrills whether it's through horse racing or gambling.

The star of the show is Richard Dreyfuss. The cast, which is strong to begin with, isn't bad. In many ways, the setting looks like Miami, and it's indeed correct but was rather shot on location at Hialeah Park Race Track in Hialeah, Florida.

All in all, Let It Ride isn't for everybody, but I've enjoyed it.
