Advantages: Action Packed thoughout Disadvantages: No comments
I thought Hardrain was very good film. This movie is about a truck been robbed during a flood. The drivers are played by Christian Slater and Edward Asner. Morgan Freeman wants the money. The plot is basically-there is a bad storm and the town is evacuated. Christian Slater (tom)is in charge of rescuing £3,000,000 dollars, but a group of theives plan to get it off of him. Both Slater and Freeman play cat and mouse though out the movie. This movie is a fast paced action thriller that stars Christian Slater as the hero. The action is excellent with explosions jet ski chases and of course shootouts. The plot is very original with some superb twists in the tale to keep you entertained. There are Good performances from Christian Slater and Minnie Driver.
This movie is great if you like action movies, lots of special effects. Overall, it ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of Hard Rain (DVD)
HardRain although not well known is a good all rounder film.It stars Christian Slater who has finally managed to get rid of the idea that his looks are the only good thing about him, and has proven how good an actor he really is. Morgan Freeman also excells in this film, and for once plays a baddie who we manage to grow to like.
The film revolves around a mixed up hijacking pliot, the attempt to steal thousands of dollars from an armed truck, the involvement of Slaters p[artner in this, and very importantly, an horrific storm where everywhere is flooded.
Slater, one of the guards manages to hide the money, but he ends up getting more than he bargained for, with the film climaxing with a hostage situation after a long action packed chase.I better mention that on eof the hostages is Minnie Driver who acts as well as she normally ...

DVD Description
Rising flood waters imperil the residents of a Midwestern town, but to a gang of thieves, the disaster is an opportunity--to waltz off with the contents of a bank vault abandoned by the evacuated townspeople. Something they didn't count on is armed truck driver Christian Slater, called upon to carry the money out of the vault and to higher ground. Thus begins a battle of wills set against the raging flood tides, complicated further by a corrupt sheriff's designs on the loot. Nifty flood effects and high-octane action sequences keep things moving at a rapid pace.
