129.0. "Honeymoon In Vegas" by 12368::michaud (Jeff Michaud, DECnet/OSI) Fri Apr 09 1993 20:40

	This one stars Nick Cage, Sarah Jessica Parker, James Caan, and
	a small role as a cabbie by the older guy who played in those
	Karate kid movies (Mr. Moriati?).

	The story line is that Nick and Sarah go to Vegas to get married,
	Nick plays poker right before they get married and loses big time
	to James.  James tells Nick that he can pay off the dept by letting
	him spend a weekend with his fiance Sarah.  You'll have to watch
	the movie to see what happens.

	The story line sounds an aweful lot like the new movie out called
	"Indecent Proposal", doesn't it!?

	In any case, HIV is relatively lame, though is bearable as a
	slightly funny comedy (it has it's moments).  Sarah Jessica
	Parker looks great and does good with the material she has
	to work with.

    Gee, I hadn't noticed that the TLA for this movie is "HIV". I wonder if
    it occurred to the producers? ;-)

    re .0, "relatively lame, though is bearable as a slightly funny comedy"
    just about describes it for me, too.

    Sorry, I loved this movie!  I love Nicholas Cage and I thought he was
    hilarious.  I also liked Parker, who was very good and believable ...
    Caan was Caan.
