Two relative losers/geeks (Anthony Edwards/Mare Winningham) meet and dig each other. Edwards finds out through a fluke that nuclear war is going to break out within the hour. Despite having just recently met Winningham he scours the city for her looking to get out of the city on his buddy's helicopter before the nukes strike. Word of what's coming starts to leak out and the streets of LA start to get crazy. Along the way there's interactions with carjackers and gay bodybuilders. It actually reminds me a bit of Scorcese's After Hours. And of course it all takes place in the Miracle Mile, so it's fun to watch the rioting scenes if you live in the area. |
It was OK, but let's not get carried away. _________________ “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.” ― Elie Wiesel |
