Today, hardly anyone has heard of the screen comic Joe Rock. Heck, I know a ton about movies and I only learned about him after seeing this film. It's a shame, as while "Hold TIght" is not a hilarious comedy, it is extremely high energy and entertaining....mostly because of its seemingly insane stunts.
The story finds some rich mine owner demanding that he be sold a local mine...that or else! He's ordered his lacky to blow up the rival mine if needed and so Joe Rock and his girlfriend go at breakneck speed to the mine. Along the way, they fly in a plane that falls apart and take all sorts of dangerous falls--all in an attempt to stop the baddies.
There really isn't a lot of plot...just crazy good stunts and energy...and sometimes that is good enough.
