Featured review
Watchable, though generic crime thriller...
After having suffered through the rather abysmal 1996 movie "Skyscraper", I must admit that my expectations for the 1995 movie "To the Limit" weren't exactly sky high. Yet, I still opted to sit down and watch it, on account of it being a movie I hadn't already seen.
And the movie starts off with not just one, but two nude scenes within the first 10 minutes. So that pretty much showcased what Anna Nicole Smith's acting talents were all about. Luckily, the nude scenes toned off and there wasn't another until much later in the movie. But two scenes within the first ten minutes of the movie's start, that was just ridiculous and it set a very low standard of what to expect from the movie.
The storyline in "To the Limit" was actually a more adequate one than the movie Anna Nicole Smith would star in a year later. Writers Raymond Martino, William Stroum and Joey Travolta put together a fair enough script here actually. Sure, it was generic, but it was watchable nonetheless, if you can abhor to suffer through the pointless nude and sex scenes that Anna Nicole Smith had to do.
I was actually impressed with the number of familiar faces on the cast list, and there were some names that I would not have expected to pop up in a movie such as "To the Limit", with the likes of John Aprea, David Proval, Branscombe Richmond (whom sported the mullet of the century in the movie), Michael Nouri and Jack Bannon. And with people like these on the cast list, the movie was actually lifted up somewhat to being more watchable than it would otherwise have been.
"To the Limit" is by no means a milestone in the crime thriller genre, but it was watchable for what it turned out to be. However, having sat through 98 minutes of it, I can honestly say that I will never return to watch it a second time.
My rating of director Raymond Martino's 1995 movie "To the Limit" lands on a four out of ten stars.
