Matt Hanlon has one responsibility... Get his kids to Aunt Tess's house by Christmas Day or his wife will be more than crazy mad at him. No big deal because he has three days to get there and it's only an 800 mile drive. What he didn't count on was getting lost and ending up having to rely on the kindness of Bonnie Kate a 70 something cowgirl protector of a hidden herd of wild horses. Matt and the kids learn that one of the oldest mares aptly named Maria is about to have a baby and Bonnie is worried. Over the years the now very small herds' biggest enemy has been a series of wild-horse thieves. This year they come in the form of a couple of dim-witted local high-school dropouts named Tank and Bones. Fortunately this Christmas Bonnie has some much needed help in squelching the evil deeds of the bumblingly-humorous encounters with Tank and Bones. In the end Maria has been horse-napped and is feared lost...but just as the Christmas Eve clock strikes midnight Maria and her foal are found safe and sound. Bonnie gives the Hanlon's the honour of naming the Foal... ‘Christmas’
Jagged Edge was one of a series of entertaining if porous thrillers crafted by screenwriter Joe Eszterhas before he wrote the ridiculous Showgirls. This 1985 movie is a taut mystery about an attorney (Glenn Close) who defends a newspaper publisher (Jeff Bridges) accused of murder. The fact that Close's character falls for him is more convenient than plausible, but it is a necessary emotional bridge for Eszterhas and director Richard Marquand (Eye of the Needle) to build toward a powerful finale. Scary, fun as courtroom dramas go, the film is well serviced by the two lead stars and has impressive support from co-star Peter Coyote and especially from Robert Loggia, who plays Close's cop buddy. --Tom Keogh, Amazon.com

Extreme Measures loses credibility near the climax when it sacrifices its hold on reality, but this entertaining, intelligent thriller effectively applies a formulaic plot to the complicated ethics of medical research. It also gives Hugh Grant an opportunity to break free from lightweight comedy by playing an emergency room surgeon who discovers that a renowned neurologist (Gene Hackman) has been conducting secret experiments on patients. When Grant fails to save a patient whose body later mysteriously disappears from the morgue, his investigation leads to an underground community of healthy homeless people, some of whom have been test subjects in Hackman's revolutionary, but criminal research toward a cure for paralysis. Co-produced by actor-model Elizabeth Hurley and capably directed by Michael Apted, this otherwise conventional thriller rises above its limitations by asking morally complex questions that give its far-fetched plot an extra kick of dramatic impact. --Jeff Shannon
