Mel & Goldie and a great film!
When I first saw this film, I attended a sneak preview on a saturday night in Palm Springs. It was a sold out showing, the audience was cheering, laughing and applauding. I was right there with them!!!! Goldie Hawn is gorgeous, hillarious and brilliant here!(isn't she always?!!) Mel Gibson is equally good. The teaming of these two actors was awesome! Action, comedy, romance, this box office blockbuster has it all! A classic that gets better with each repeated viewing. Two movie icons together in a great movie!Critics were not kind to this movie, but audiences ignorred the reviews and enjoyed the film and it was a mega-hit, grossing over $80 million at the U.S. box office.

The most misunderstood movie of the nineties
Considering what Mr. Maltin has to say in his review, I wonder if he ever bothered to watch this movie to the end. It is a fine-line satire of our society as it was in the late eighties and still is to this day. The action scenes force the hero through a lot of adventures and make him face the past. But all he can see is pretense. It is yes, an action-comedy movie, but if one would bother to look between the lines, he would see the irony of our own society. Despite the fact that Gibson and Hawn are stars, they work well together and gave us probably the comedic performances of their lives. David Carradine is top shape and delivers. In its genre, I would recommend it to anyone. There is humour, drama, action and spice in this little movie. All the ingredients that, in other times, made a great movie.

Bird On A Wire Review
I think that Bird on A Wire was a brilliant movie because the Writers and Producers brought 2 wonderful actors together to make the stunning movie it is. With the comedy of Goldie Honking the BMW Horn and driving crazy to the suspense of the story of her old boyfriend Rick(Mel Gibson) who was supposed to have gotten killed years and years before.
This movie is one of my family's favorites and they have rented it and watched it more than 8 times! I think that Bird on A Wire is very good Classic and even though it was made in 1990 it is still a huge hit for the young and old.
In fact if you can I would say first before buying it you should rent it at your local movie renting store and watching it before buying it so you can see just how funny, suspenseful and Story-packed this movie is.
I rate this movie FIVE STARS because of this great combination to make this movie the most undescribable and fun movie in years that I have seen as a 'Classic'.
