NOTES |
Two brothers
take part in bike marathon called 'The Hell of the West'. The
film is set amongst the Colorado Rockies. The younger
brother (David Grant) is suspected of having an hereditary
condition -- a weak blood vessel on the brain -- (cerebral
aneurysm ) which caused his father to die of a stroke.
There are also doubts about the older brother (Kevin Costner). |
|
A good deal
of talking, many questions raised but little |
|
resolved.
The purpose is presumably to parallel the bike race |
|
with the
race against death. Reasonably entertaining, |
|
especially
the scenery, but overall unsatisfactory. |
