Review of Catchfire

Catchfire (1990)
4/10
For Jodie Foster fans or diehard Dennis Hopper fans only, because it has too many RIDICULOUS plotturns that spoil the broth...

Really great actors, almost all of them were at (or near) the peak of their careers at the time of making this movie, but however good an actor Dennis Hopper might be, he is NOT good at directing AT ALL. I blame him for some pretty stupid plot turns, of which there are simply too many to take this movie seriously. It is even listed as a comedy at Imdb, which it certainly is NOT. It was not meant to be a comedy anyway, but this goes to show the mere stupidity of certain scenes that are laughable dumb indeed.

Any good? You get to see Jodie Foster naked. Some men will like that perhaps? 4 stars for the cult factor combination of really great actors in a terrible movie.
