Adventure looked to be on its way out, but not without a fight.
The movie would fully embrace the 1930s setting, recreating the theatricality of old Hollywood serials it pastiches.
All while maintaining a fun atmosphere bolstered by a who’s who of terrific character actors.
The film is noLethal Weapon, but it is a worthwhile watch for any Donner fan.
It contains just the right amount of excitement and heart to bring a child to tears and laughs.
Dark caverns, rushing rivers, and an adorable friendship make this a worthwhile successor toThe Goonies.
The true standout is Timothy Dalton, however, who performs excellently as a scene-chewing villain.
It features hilariously explosive action sequences, roaring car chases, and a litany of legendary gags.
