Director Robert Zemeckis (Forrest Gump, Contact) had a hit with this 1984 comedy that first teamed Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner, and Danny DeVito. Turner steals the show from the guys, however, playing a pushy romance novelist who gets stuck among some dangerous figures in Colombia and has only a rumpled guide (Michael Douglas) as an ally. The chemistry between the stars is infectious (the trio went on to make a sequel, Jewel of the Nile, and then an interesting, dark comedy directed by DeVito, The War of the Roses). Zemeckis--whose specialty at the time was creating set pieces of raucous action (as in his Back to the Future)--keeps things hopping with lots of kinetic material. --Tom Keogh

My husband has always loved this movie. So one day I ordered it from Amazon. We
received it very quickly, and it was a great price. This is a great way to get those hard to find movies that you always look for.

I've always loved this movie and feel like the blu-ray is enough of improvement to make purchase worth it. Not the best blu-ray transfer by far, but worthy of purchase.
My favourite movie of all time January 21, 2010

I absolutely love it. A mix of comedy, suspense, drama, action, adventure and romance all in one. Every movie collector should do themselves a favour and purchase this film about Joan (Kathleen Turner) who travels to Columbia to rescue her sister, but she is in possession of a map which leads to a very precious gem called "el corozon." A crooked police and his force pursues Joan for this map along with Ralph (Danny Divito), they threaten her life for it, but she is helped by a stranger in the form of Jack (Michael Douglas), who at first agrees to take Jane to a telephone for money, then he tries to get a copy of the map himself, but all of his ambitions are suppressed when he falls in love with Joan and helps her rescue her sister. In the end he ends up with the stone and he and Joan reunite in New York city.
