A '90s riff on "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid", with the two outlaws robbing a bank to save their favorite dive bar.
For the most part, "Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man" is a laid back futuristic western with most of its charm found in the dialog scenes. And it's not bad, despite the critical beating it received.
Are there cracks showing? Absolutely. The bad guy is a sneering Daniel Baldwin for Pete's sake; that, and it feels *very* 1991. The chemistry between the two leads doesn't work for me because Mickey Rourke looks like he desperately wants to be anywhere else.
But I keep coming back to this every so often on the strength of Don Johnson, who's fully committed to the project and yields most of the laughs.
