Thanks for the memories!

Sorry, this movie sucks

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

I love Bird on a Wire. It's smart, it's fun and exciting, it's free, and it's a beautiful thrilling adventure. I love the Bird on a Wire song. Bird on a Wire is not an action oriented action movie, it's more a romance, and I love it for it's love story. It's like straight out of the pages of your favorite romantic novel with a pair of super sexy stars all happening in this raw and intense bang-bang action world!The way that Mel Gibson and Goldie Hawn are on the lam in Bird on a Wire, are always on the run and constantly in danger, it's like a sexy fantasy getaway to get lost in, a major turn on. Goldie Hawn is a major turn on, my God. She's the sexiest! Mel Gibson and Goldie Hawn are the absolute hottest in Bird on a Wire, and these two hot stars determine the show, believe me! They share their one of a kind flirtatious attraction for the viewing so that the two come off as incredibly irresistible. Goldie Hawn flashes her butt so much in Bird on a Wire, I think I might want to see it again. Mel Gibson manages his way into his undies enough times, too, so don't worry, lady viewers, there's plenty of sexy to go round!Bird on a Wire is one real and one sexy romance that's all dressed up as a deadly crime drama, and that's kind of why it can sometimes be misinterpreted. Bird on a Wire is a beautiful love story. It's best to enjoy this movie for the steamy romance relationship between the two main stars, Goldie Hawn and Mel Gibson. I know I did. I love you Goldie Hawn, and Mel Gibson. You're beautiful!'Like a bird on the wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir, I have tried in my way to be free.'

Rick has been given a new identity by the FBI for helping convict a drug dealing FBI agent. Fifteen years later his former fiancé recognises him. Rick's FBI 'minder' has been replaced by a corrupt agent who helps the drug dealing FBI agent and his accomplice locate him....So when this film was first released, I saw this at cinemas and thought it was the best thing since sliced bread. Then again I was thirteen, and it was the first timed been to the cinema sans parents.Watching it 23 years on (wow), its still a lot of fun to watch, but its basically a vehicle for Martin Riggs' funnier side, and to have a chase scene every fifteen minutes or so.As you would expect from a nineties Badham movie, it looks good, but very TV movie- esque, especially during the climatic battle in the zoo.And seeing it now as a thirty five year old super geek of film, Goldie Hawn is virtually unbearable in this. If she isn't screaming, she's maundering, if she isn't maundering, she's crying, and that's her character in the whole film, truly hateful.Gibson is good, but this was the time when he was just playing the same character in every movie, funny, lovable, but a bit risky.So it's basically the same as every other chase movie made, action sequence, big stunt, time for talk and comedy, and carry on until the big finale.But thanks to good old nostalgia, I still like it.Plus it's the best film ever made about Mel Gicbson and Goldie Hawn not ageing in fifteen years...

ANNOYING..the acting was Annoying...the script was annoying...the premise Annoying...Goldie Hawn's screeching Annoying she literally played the same character since Private Benjamin when watching this i literally thought she can only play this character and like eating a bologna sandwich twenty days straight three times a day ANNOYING..mel was annoying seems Mel and Goldie did it for the money no chemistry...ANNOYING was the fact that Joan Severance a real hottie was only in for a cameo and yet i was forced to look at a rapidly aging Goldie tired old posterior and legs and Mel's pimply ass...ANNOYING ANNOYING

This was "cute" and "funny" the first time I saw it, but "annoying" on the second look. A big part of that was my pet peeve of hearing God's name used an exclamation all the time and Goldie Hawn was absolutely brutal in that regard. Every time she was in trouble, which was often, it was "Oh, God!, Oh, God!, Oh, God!"Puh-leeze, stop with the bimbo blasphemy. I am so sick of people doing this, especially women who are the worst abusers and especially dumb blondes. Anyway, the profanity in addition to the above-mentioned, made this film deserve an "R" rating, not "PG-13." How many movies have we seen where that is the case? Parents, beware of films labeled "PG-13."If none of this stuff bothers you in the least and you like a fun comedy-adventure then I heartily recommend the movie. You'll get a lot of laughs and entertainment out of this. Hawn and Mel Gibson are always in some kind of trouble and they are a likable couple to watch. This movie personifies both actors: Mel, the handsome macho guy with the sense of humor and Goldie the cutie who is smarter than she looks.... and not as innocent, either. She really likes to show off her butt in this film. It's nice, but the fanny jokes are overdone here.The bad guys in the movie? The DEA, who else? That's Hollywood's most hated group, I think, even more than the military. Anyone who might takes drugs away from them is a definite enemy of movie producers, directors and actors!In this weak-plotted film, our two "buddies" are chased all over the country and we viewers just go along for the bumpy and crazy ride.
