This action-comedy from 1990 makes the critical mistake of trying to mix a potentially suspenseful plot with the kind of humor that Mel Gibson can only get away with in his Lethal Weapon movies. It doesn't work here because the movie's supposed to be a Hitchcockian thriller and Mel's wisecracking--not to mention some implausible plot twists and ridiculous chase scenes--makes it impossible to take any of this movie seriously. It works best as a lightweight vehicle for Gibson and Goldie Hawn, who bring their own established appeal to their roles as old lovers who are reunited under unexpectedly dangerous circumstances. After testifying against some drug-running killers, Mel's been safe under the protection of the FBI's witness relocation program, and Goldie coincidentally enters his life again just as the bad guys are hot on Mel's trail. They join up and go on the run from the villains and ... well, let's just say director John Badham doesn't have any big surprises up his sleeve. Goldie and Mel are enjoyable, as always, but you'd have to be their biggest fan to watch this movie more than once. --Jeff Shannon

At the time of seeing this film I was a Mel Gibson fan and a Goldie Hawn fan. But ..... words fail me.

The movie itself is a little weird because you get this girl who is still obsessed with an old lover and stares at his photos and than poof he is back in her life, he tries to make it look like he is someone else but she comes back later to find two men trying to kill him. She helps him not knowing where he went or why he didn't come back to find her... but eventually it all makes sense... a movie about love and betrayl.

"Bird on a wire" gathers two emblematic actors, the always alluring and sympathetic golden beauty, Mrs. Goldie Hawn, with this human hurricane, the always restless Mel Gibson.
A delightful sexy-comedy-thriller where Gibson reencounters with his beloved sweetheart, after he has been sheltered by the F.B.I. into the well known witness relocation program. With a new identity, the strings of destiny will make he faces against the bad guys he sent to prison and at the same time she accidentally finds him.
So, this expected relationship will be spiced with the accustomed doses of hair raising chase sequences and that surrealistic stage at the end of the film.
Entertained but easy to forget. A bubble gum movie.
