Review of The River Wild (1994) by Kathleen M — 03 Mar 2007
This was a pretty interesting suspense movie that was entertaining and fun to watch once. After that, it got increasingly annoying, thanks to the snotty kid, "Roarke" (Joseph Mazzello). The irritating kid, and husband (David Strathairn) who unfairly was the object of scorn for much of the film, made me lose the enjoyment of watching this on subsequent viewings.
If you haven't seen it, it's definitely good adventure story of a woman (Meryl Streep) and her family terrorized by a wacko (Kevin Bacon) out in the wilds. There's some pretty scenery in here, too, especially if you like the rapids and mountains.
