There's just enough slicks and smarts in this movie to make you wish the rest of it weren't so darn stupid.

Goofball fun, and Swanson's rarely been hotter.

Audience Reviews for The Chase

As goofy as it is, it does carry some value...even if it's not that great. A nice Saturday matinee sort of flick.

When I watched The Chase on Tv a few years ago, I thought itwasa great movie. It's an action and drama movie mixed with a touch ofcomedy. Charlie Sheen is wanted by police everywhere. He manages to escape and he takes Kristy Swanson as hostage and she happens to be the daughter of one of the richest men in the state. You'll never guess how he manages to kidnap her; he does it with a candy bar. Sheen and Swanson end up going on a long road trip trying to get to Mexico before they get caught by the cops. All the news stations have them on live TV the whole time. Charlie Sheen tells Kristy Swanson about his story and why he's in prison and they end up liking each other. She has sympathy and love for him at the same time while everybody else thinks Sheen is holding her hostage and that she's in real danger ...
Charlie Sheen and Kristy Swanson couldn't have played the movie together any better and it's fun to watch to see what will happen next. This is one chase I definitely recommend you to join in on. NOTE: That was my Amazon review from the year 2000. I've always loved this movie and find it to be one of the most underrated and overlooked of its kind!

    1. Jack Hammond: That's the question on the minds of all your viewers? Whether I run out of gas or not? Tell you what, Jer. You let your viewers know that I hope Miss Voss' fear and my desperation are entertainment enough for them. After all, that is what this is all about, isn't it? The story. As it breaks. Live. Coming to you from the bad guy himself. I mean we wouldn't want your viewers to CHANGE THE FUCKING CHANNEL, NOW WOULD WE?
