Review of Picasso Trigger (1988) by Keenan S — 23 Apr 2010
"Picasso Trigger" is Andy Sidaris' follow-up to his most famous film, "Hard Ticket to Hawaii", which set the formula and the standard to live up to for his movies; you can expect great dealt of guns, boobs, explosions, bad acting, bad dialogue, bad plotting, and a lot of fun for those who only ask that their bad movies be entertaining.
The problem with "Picasso Trigger" is that most of its really fun stuff is confined to the last third of the film; the first two-thirds take an awful lot of time establishing WAY too many characters and convoluted subplots, and it seems like Sidaris has such loyalty for his core group of actors that he somehow has to shoehorn all of them into his movies.
But while the first hour has quite a few dull spots, the film really picks up for an action-packed third act, which is filled with such delightful sights as an explosive boomerang, an explosive remote-controlled car, and a guided missile that's programmed with the coordinates of the main villain's pacemaker; it all provides the audience with a perfect reminder of why enjoy Andy Sidaris movies in the first place.
