Review of Blown Away

Blown Away (1994)
6/10
One of those movies that isn't very memorable.
14 March 2003
There are just those movies you have a hard time remembering five minutes after you leave the theater. This is one such movie. Not that it was entirely bad, in fact it was an OK movie...it just wasn't very memorable at all. Jones plays a mad bomber and Bridges is a bomb squad member. Jones and Bridges though know each other from their Irish days. Some good scenes here and there, though for a movie called Blown Away there aren't as many explosions as one would think. At times this one gets quite boring in places too. Jones and Bridges are pretty good though and so is the elder Bridges as well. Some areas of this film are weak though like the scene where Bridge's wife walks through her house flipping switches and the screen flashes to these scenes where it shows what happens when you turn something on making you think there is a bomb somewhere. It is an OK movie, but nothing that will make you think long afterward.
