Desert Heat (1999)
JCVD cleans out a desert snake-nest. Simple but funny. A treat.

Hey, if you want art go to a museum. This thing is entertaining. Slow start but it makes up for that. Funny in understated ways. Vivid characters that weren't all made with cookie cutters. If the dialog had been witless the life would have drained out of this movie as easily as the bad guys die. But I'll wager the writer (Tom O'Rourke II) was awake and had some fun. I was too and I did too. Hats off to him.
We (viewers) made Hollywood (filmmakers) to have a steady source of diversionary schlock. This one delivers.
P.S. Should get an award for egregious miscasting: Vincent Schiavelli as a Sikh?
