Member Rating:  
Mel Gibson and Robert Downey Jr. play a couple of what-the-hell flyboys flying contraband to Laos during the Vietnam War. Gibson doesn't seem to care about anything but the "guts and glory" aspects of the job, but Downey has serious questions about the moral implications of their mission. When a Laotian general expresses more concern over the wellbeing of an opium shipment than the men who are risking life and limb to fly it in, Gibson comes around to Downey's way of thinking. By film's end, Gibson is stuck in one of those character-building dilemmas so common to films of this nature: should he deliver his cache of weaponry, or should he dump it all to rescue a bunch of refugees? ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Sorta the forgotten Mel Gibson movie. It didn't do real well when it was released and I don't understand why. Mel and Robert have great chemistry. Fun movie.

After seeing Robert Downey, Jr.'s heartfelt tribute to Mel Gibson and his reference to "Air America"...this was a "must see" for me. Plot was "iffy"...acting just "so-so"......but I am a Downey fan so it was worth it
