Washington City Paper

Demi Moore is beautiful and a master of the art of the single tear. Patrick Swayze is a singular hunk, a minotaur-like presence whose strength and grace never conflict.

Great movie, this movie never goes out of style, I saw it in 1990 at the old Loews paradise theater, it was great seeing it in a modern theater with todays sound and picture quality, a must see if it ever comes back out.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
