Excess Baggage
Motto : How stupid do you think I am ? Huh ?
How stupid is there ?
Excess Baggagei is pretty cool. Silverstone is, as you no doubt remember from Aerosmith 90s videos (Crazy etc) pretty hawt. She matches up well with a goofy, lanky and aloof Del Toro even tho she's stuck on four inch heels throughout.
The story goes something like this : rich blonde hottie brat is upset with daddy because he has better things to do than pay attention to her. Consequently, frames her own kidnapping. Unwitting car thief steals her car, with her in the trunk in a light scotch tape glazing. Guy ditches police cover (including a helicopter) and then spazzes the fuck out (alongside a friend brought in for reinforcements) with the lioness handcuffed to a pipe in the toilet. Rawr!
So he offers her a Twinkie.
Basically it's a muchly padded, rather phantasmagorical daydream on the general lines of "gotta ask something off daddy". Teenagers do a lot of this stuff, embelish their otherwise dreary days. It contains absolutely no nudity, which makes it fail. It will have to be redone, preferably around a taller girl with juicier tits. The supporting cast are unmitigatedly awful, particularly Jack Thompson and Harry Connick Jr. These two are really, really bad janitors that try to fraudulently pass themselves for actors. They should be deported, preferably to a very cold place.
Still, it made me chuckle. Your laughterage may vary.
