This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

One of my all time favorites.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

***SPOILERS*** Direct to video, and it shows, action flick with the at the time, in having two hit TV shows "Baywatch" & "Night Rider", very popular David Haselhoff as bounty hunter and part time tennis instructor White Bread Donaldson or just W.B for short. W.B together with his two bounty hunter friends Mason Blue Walcott,Tony Brubaker, and Casper "The Bean" Garcia, Thomas Rosales Jr, is given the task to make sure by their cheapskate boss Aran Haronian, who's played by an actor who had his name taken off the films credits, that heiress Nettie Ridgeway, Linda Blair, makes her court appearance or else's he's out one million dollars in the bail money that he put up for her.As we soon find out Nattie was at the wrong place at the wrong time when she and her boyfriend, who unknown to her worked for the Colombian drug cartel, were busted by the police. The 5 million in coke & heroin that her boyfriend had on him was also taken from him before the bust by a rival Iranian drug gang who set, in him being busted, the whole thing up! With Nattie being kidnapped by the Colombians lead by their boss Caesar Zalazar,Greg Scott Commin, it's now up to W.B & Co. to get her back and not only save her life but her pop's Mr. Ridgway's,John Vernon, home and bank account! That he's putting up to Zalazar & Co. as collateral for the 5 million in missing coke & heroin!The movie limps along at a snails pace with both David Hesselhoff and the by now at age 29 fully developed, from her pre and later teenage "The Excorist" & "Roller Buggie" days, Linda Blair trying to make it worth watching. About the only thing that makes the film work is a number of car and helicopter chases and series of explosions that besides keeping your interested in this turkey also keeps you awake. Both Brubaker & Rosales Jr, as fellow bounty hunters Walcott & Garcia, are in the film more for comedy relief then anything else! The by far biggest disappointment in the film is that we never get to see the sexy Linda Blair disrobe even once. Which was about the only thing left that could have possibly save this as boring as watching paint dry turkey of an action movie from being the total disaster that it turned out to be.

It was my friend's birthday and he LOVES cheesy bad cinema - the kind that are sooo incompetent and unintentionally hilarious - so when I saw a DVD copy of Hasselhoff and Linda Blair in a flick called BAIL OUT for 2 bucks - bingo - I bought it and gave it to my pal. Well, we laughed our butts off - this movie starts bad and just keeps getting bad. You see badly executed stunts, awful acting, garish costumes and stunningly corny dialouge "There's a time for shooting and a time for talking" - Hasselhoff was also a producer on this and he makes sure he gets well lit and his hair is always perfect and hair sprayed into place - he plays a bounty hunter called Whitebread who is also a tennis pro - there are clichéd Asian gardeners, clichéd Mexicans, clichéd Arabs, clichéd evil Columbian drug lords - there is even a scene in Mexico where a Mexican character living way out in the middle of nowhere is wearing an actual mariachi costume and they never call attention to it! Like - hey we all dress like this, see? Wow - you have to see this to believe it and most of the time Linda Blair is tied to a chair and gagged so she does lots of special EYE acting. This is one of the greatest bad movies ever made. Hasselhoff rules - you have to pay attention when he almost slips trying to jump onto a truck or his special thrusting of fists in the air as he celebrates shooting down a helicopter (where you can plainly see the wires attached to bring it down). A very special piece of rotten cinema.

After an heiress (Linda Blair) is kidnapped by some Colombians (played by Irish people) and brought to Mexico, three bail bondsmen must rescue her in order to collect their fees. But do not expect it to be easy when you are dealing with drug-running, gun-toting Colombians! Now, some people are quick to dismiss this as a cheesy David Hasselhoff film with poor video quality. Which, of course, it is. At least with the so-called "digitally remastered" version I own that is obvious a VHS transfer. But if you look past the video quality, you will see a really well-written, funny and entertaining film.Hasselhoff is dashing and funny as White Bread, his mullet flowing in the wind. His two assistants, Blue and Bean, are equally amusing. Their boss is great -- and then Linda Blair! Oh my! Where else will you find this much talent and excitement packed into under two hours? Nowhere! Better than almost any Chuck Norris film you are going to find, and Hasselhoff delivers the goods.Some plot questions arise... the Colombians (played by Irish actors) hanging out in Mexico... somehow mixed up with Iranians, and then with a billionaire oil man in California. There seems like there should be more to this. The tennis coach who gives lessons for $200 an hour, but is willing to get into gun fights for $800? That makes no sense.The film is quite humorous, and it is easy to overlook the bizarre plot (and the fact that police never arrive despite car crashes and guns blazing). From the opening scene of the bondsman cursing his neighbors to the extreme stereotype of "the bean"... heck, even having the black man be a former football player seemed like a stereotype. But it is all done so tongue-in-cheek, it comes off as comedy brilliance.

This is one of those career stopping straight to video efforts that should never have been made.I giggle with irony here as this long lost film which for reasons unknown got renamed Bail Out in 1994, has finally landed in the UK shores in a Supermarket cheap DVD range at just 97p! The biggest irony of all of course being that is about what this pile of poo probably cost to make.....Anyway, I digress....Leaving aside the fact that my 97p (about 60c for US readers) DVD was utterly terrible in terms of picture and sound quality, brings me on to film itself.Allow you jaw to drop to the floor in disbelief as you watch some of the worst acting and out of sync dubbing in movie history.Roll on the floor with laughter at Hasselhoff's introduction scene into this mess as he plays tennis in slow motion, and then later he sings in the shower and attempts to ride a horse - both badly! Giggle incessantly at Linda Blair playing the damsel in distress that is straight out of the Hollywood cheap movie handbook. She must have need the cash methinks....Go 'Ooooh' at the ten quids worth of recycled special effects.Belly laugh at the cardboard stereotyped bad guys, the leader of which just has to be seen to be believed. Some of the other stereotypes on offer here are also straight out of central casting.Needless to say the damsel in distress is kidnapped not once but twice (how careless is that?) and of course is rescued with the usual requisite explosions, gun fights and some weird Mexican fella who appears at a crucial moment before vanishing without so much as a reasonable explanation.There is also a reasonable gun fight in a scrapyard towards the start that seems to have absolutely nothing to do with the plot whatsoever, in addition no explanation is offered for the Bail Bond guy's mysterious car change in the opening credits.If you are a fan or collector of Hasselhoff's work, you may want to track this pile of garbage down, especially if you want a laugh.Everyone else is well advised to steer well clear!
