Reviews for Tequila Sunrise
In a world where everyone is some kind of insider, the viewer may feel left out in the cold.
A project with the ingredients for greatness that nonetheless came out half-baked.
An intriguing movie with interesting characters, but it might have worked better if it had found a cleaner narrative line from beginning to end.
