Mi Amigo (2002)
1/10
No Amigo of Mine
29 June 2010
Like the other reviewer, I really only watched this movie because it looked like a kind of bad, but still funny film featuring Josh Holloway. How wrong I was. If you're going to see it for that reason, don't bother! He's only in it for less than half the movie before he gets replaced by an old creepy man who looks nothing like him.

That being said, even if you don't care whether Josh Holloway is in it or not, this is a TERRIBLE movie. The acting is bad and the plot makes no sense. The "villain" is just some guy who talks really fast and isn't the least bit menacing, nor does he ever cause any real problems. The love triangle plot succeeds only in being completely random. And, worst of all, the audience never sympathizes with anyone because we're never given enough time with the characters as they were when they were young before the movie skips straight to their old, nostalgic selves. This movie is only 89 minutes but it feels much, much longer because there is no real climax to the plot. Save your money and rent a season of Lost instead.
