Firewalker: Review

starstarstarstar
Norris again fails to find a niche for his limited talent in this cross between RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK and a buddy picture. Norris and his buddy, Gossett, are hired by Anderson to help her locate a fabulous treasure-filled Aztec temple that an old map shows to be nearby. Their early explorations uncover an old Indian, who sends them farther south, where they encounter the usual perils of hostile Indians and crocodiles. There was some potential in this film, and Gossett should have been just the actor to offset Norris' usual wooden delivery. Instead of the witty, intelligent script needed to pull off an interracial buddy story, however, the scenario for this film is an obvious lift from RAIDERS and a flat, uninteresting piece of writing, occasionally interspersed with embarrassingly sappy affirmations of friendship. Production values are generally slick, with the exception of the temple set, which is appallingly bad. leave a comment
