Watch if you like crocodile Dundee. A guy who's amazing with electronics is let out of prison and on leaving he jokes around opening all the prison cell doors via a small device. Oddly everyone everyone laughs and he doesn't get arrested. But the point is that he's smart and could have been someone but maybe by his nature and maybe from upbringing (who knows) it didn't work out for him? But he's not exactly antisocial either so it doesnt work for the character if you think about it. I could see the sad end coming but it still worked. I think it was maybe too much of a downer at the end even with the explanation to try and lift the viewer. If Steve never avoided the police who were after Terry he wouldn't have died at the time he did. Thanks guardian angel Terry. One moral slant too many? Elias did a great job acting and the friendship was never too cheesy. His acting made me care for the character in an otherwise average movie. The dialogue had glimpses of great deadpan humour but it wasn't enough. Hogan plays his usual part.

It's not that funny or exciting or even heart warming but it's perfectly watchable if you don't expect too much. A good family movie.
