TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Inadvands Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess

chrispage100 SERIOUS SPOILERS AHEAD! Layover is the sort of film you catch once in a while when your not looking for it. I caught this film late at night on C5, and started watching it because I saw David Hasslehoff was in it. That guy cracks me up, just his name is kind of comical. The film itself is a pretty good idea and should be a bit better than it is. Its a thriller with a lot of twists. A lot! Maybe a few too many. The plot is pretty fast paced which is good and keeps things moving so you don't have to sit through any especially boring bits. It tells the story of businessman Dan Morrison (hasslehoff), who is paranoid that his wife is cheating on him and then goes and cheats on her at the airport with a woman who walks up to him and essentially says: lets go! This happens out of town in San Francisco during a layover, hence the title. There is a hilarious scene after Dan makes love to the woman at the airport. He stands up and puts on his glasses and they are cracked. The Hoff's expression is priceless. Shortly after though is the beginning of my issues about this film. I thought it would be pretty unlikely that Dan would accompany the other couple to dinner 10 minutes after sleeping with the wife. Also the bad guys rely heavily on Dan being co-operative. All it takes is for him to say no at any stage to just one of their requests of which there are many throughout the evening, then the plan is foiled. There is a scene in the car where Vicky says that she can't believe that she is doing this (leaving her husband) and Dan says: neither can I! Well, I'm not sure the audience can either Dan.Even letting all this slide, maybe Dan is just a bit gullible, there is still trouble with the plot. To justify the various wild twists in the story there are a few loose ends that never get tied up. And the wife turning out to be part of it all at the end was a bit much. And if she was all part of it, why did she kill Jack. She was obviously deranged. Also the diamond motive at the end is weak. All these people went to so much trouble for some diamonds. Sheesh, it would have been easier and quicker to rob a bank surely! I don't really hold all this realism stuff against it though because you can pick apart a lot of movies! Overall Layover is a good enough action thriller. Fans of Hoff will love it and its still worth a watch even if you don't love him. Its a comfy film to watch, so catch it if its on.

boris82 David Hasselhoff. I've never understood why he's so beloved worldwide. He can't act, sing or dance (as one unintentionally hilarious scene oof him at a rave displays). Now comes Layover. This movie has to be seen to be believed. To call this a B-Movie would be an insult to the alphabet. For me, this movie is the funniest 90 minutes I have ever spent. I have seen many great comedies, but none had me on the verge of having a seizure from an overload of laughter. The first 30 minutes of the plot is actually good. It almost reaches Mamet "Heist and Con" territory. The rest is just a sleazy, violent, incredibly awful, accidentally funny movie experience. SPOILER ALERT: Check out some of the dialogue (I know them from memory, as I've seen this movie 3 times now):DAN (Hasselhoff): "I'm so scared, I've got my balls coming up to my lungs."Jack GiLardo (supremely mysoginstic, evil guy who goes against Dan): (to Dan) "Not a bad day's work, Danny Boy. Escaping from the cops and finding me. You've got more gonads than I thought."SEXY GIRL speaking to Dan after having slept with him and then conned him twice: "I bet the last time you've been F*#$ked three times in 12 hours was in college."Dan Responds:"Not even then."OKAY JUST ONE MORE, HAHAHA:Dan, speaking to a beautiful temptress that has supremely conned him: (describing himself) "A guy so nice, you f*&^ked him twice." -- it rhymes, get it? Well, Hasselhoff is an acclaimed lyricist/songwriter.A SEX SCENE also appears in it, although it is filmed so awkwardly that a guy watching would be almost disturbed. What went wrong in this scene? The girl is pretty. An Italian model in real life. Could it be the fact that she and David Hasselhoff have sex on top of strange peoples luggage in some storage room? Or could it because she nearly falls off him at one point while unsuccessfully attempting to straddle him?PRICELESS. I just can't get enough of this. This one has to make it to the bottom 100. And the greatest thing is that on German Amazon.com, the movie has received an average customer rating of 5,yes, count 'em up, 5 stars. That's the highest rating? Germans just love the guy. But I'm not dumping the Germans here, cuz some Americans I know enjoyed this too. They found it unpredictable and edgy! That sounds like a razor blade to me and getting sliced with it would be half as painful as watching this.Anyone who loves campy and supremely hilarious yet unintentional comedies, please rent this.Let me also point out the the "autuer" of this crap fest is Alan B. McElroy. This guy got a screenwriting masters degree from Columbia University. IVY LEAUGE! This could have been penned better by a drunk donkey. He also wrote the Spawn script. That was decent. I'll give the guy some slack.I found this at my local Blockbuster. They carry a vhs and dvd version of it, but they don't have "Night of the Hunter" or "Rashomon." The world is coming to an end people.

Kakueke This somewhat typical action thriller starts off pretty inauspiciously, dominated by overtones about marital affairs, cheap foul language and banality, and Greg Henry's in-your-face bad guy. The second half serves to partially acquit it as the plot unfolds more and David Hasselhoff, the sucker protagonist, gradually becomes less of a sucker. Altho the pace of the second half is good, we are still waiting for something good, but that happens at the end with a surely unexpected twist. Not much depth but OK as a thriller to rent for an evening.

lookinglasself Please people, don't support David Hasselhoff's post-Baywatch career. At least not when he's making movies like this. This film is the epitome of cliche and Alan McElroy has got to be the twin brother of Alan Smithee because this movie is pure garbage. I swear i've heard every spoken sentence from this movie in at least 10 other movies. Not only is it uncreative and unoriginal, it's poorly acted. I'm pretty sure that this was one of those one-take, one-week filmed movies. I can only recommend this movie to the few people who enjoy B-movies with the classic formulae of f-words, sex, and violence.To all the others with taste (like me) avoid this banal, predictable, uninspired and cliched movie at all costs.
