Review

sequel to the awesome romancing the stone. this one doesn’t have the same spirit as the first, but adds a nice twist by taking a post-modern view of the romance genre. it picks up after turner and douglas essentially sailed off into the sunset in the last film. it reveals the reality of relationships and uses turner as a romance novelist to effectively comment on the genre. this aspect of the film is noteworthy as are the three leads, but it could have used some work otherwise.
