Hard Ticket to Hawaii

“Pay the price for paradise!”

Crapmaster Classic. CrapScore 91, rated by 1 admin.

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.

Why it’s crap
Drug smugglers, undercover operatives and a dangerous snake share a Hawaiian action plot with spectacularly poor impulse control. Wooden exchanges keep giving way to outlandish stunts, as though every scene has been challenged to outdo the last.
