Beyond Justice (1992)
Member Rating:  
In Beyond Justice-- an Italian-made action film directed by Tessari Duccio with an unusually fine cast -- Christine Sanders (Carol Alt), American millionairess and mother of the grandson of a fanatic Emir (Omar Sharif), hires mercenary Tom Burton (Rutger Hauer) to return her son after the Emir has him kidnapped. Against the advice of her lawyer (Elliott Gould) and her friend Sal (Brett Halsey), Christine accompanies Tom and endures a series of hardships such as a surprise attack and a sandstorm. This rather old fashioned, slow film is entirely predictable and tedious. Nothing can keep the audience interested despite the beautiful color photography of the desert or the excellent musical score by Ennio Morricone. ~ Linda Rasmussen, Rovi

Todd A.

The premise is plausible (by Hollywood standards) but the acting, despite an excellent cast, is stiff and poorly timed. The movie would be "good" with a different soundtrack. The music is sweeping orchestral strains throughout, which is an odd choice for an "action" picture. The places which normally have tension built through the music are, instead, put to sleep. It was okay, but I wouldn't rent it again. "Lawrence of Arabia" I would rent again.
