Review of Layover

Layover (2001)
5/10
Decidedly Average

I used to love Hasselhoff. When I was growing up, Knight Ride was the show to watch. I used to collect all the memorabilia and my mother even made me a birthday cake shaped like KITT for my 7th Birthday. Then later during my adolescence he gave us Baywatch which, for a lad moving through puberty, again was the greatest show on TV. Then I see Layover. Now Hasselhoff has still got it, but the script itself is awful. The plot concerns a chance liason during a layover in San Fransisco, and the sinister chain of events he stumbles into. Unfortunately, I worked out the major twist a third of the way into the film and had to sit through the rest of the movie just waiting to be proved right (very irritating I can tell you).

The movie does have it's good points though. It is fun seeing ol' Dave kick ass and go nuts. There are also some fine looking chicks in this. The problem is this film could have been great, unfortunately it is nothing special. Catch this if it's on TV and you aren't looking for any thing challenging. - 5/10
