Omaha (The Movie) (1995)

Wickedly Original

First, I want to openly say that I am from IOWA.....yet I still have a fascination with this movie. I first viewed this film on PBS, and had no clue as to what I was watching...little did I know that I would spend the next hour and a half engrossed in the escapades of a man being chased by Columbian jewel thieves in the Henry Doorly Zoo's Rainforest, and the former Omaha Stockyards...Although I had some disregard for the "Roving Iowa Kickboxers,"(whom I myself have never encountered)....this is a great movie to watch, when you are in the mood for something light and completely original....but to truly respect this film, I do believe that you have to be familiar with the Omaha area(those from Nebraska AND Iowa).
