Best movie of this year hands down!

Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

Blistering performances.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

I love Bird on a Wire. It's smart, it's fun and exciting, it's free, and it's a beautiful thrilling adventure. I love the Bird on a Wire song. Bird on a Wire is not an action oriented action movie, it's more a romance, and I love it for it's love story. It's like straight out of the pages of your favorite romantic novel with a pair of super sexy stars all happening in this raw and intense bang-bang action world!The way that Mel Gibson and Goldie Hawn are on the lam in Bird on a Wire, are always on the run and constantly in danger, it's like a sexy fantasy getaway to get lost in, a major turn on. Goldie Hawn is a major turn on, my God. She's the sexiest! Mel Gibson and Goldie Hawn are the absolute hottest in Bird on a Wire, and these two hot stars determine the show, believe me! They share their one of a kind flirtatious attraction for the viewing so that the two come off as incredibly irresistible. Goldie Hawn flashes her butt so much in Bird on a Wire, I think I might want to see it again. Mel Gibson manages his way into his undies enough times, too, so don't worry, lady viewers, there's plenty of sexy to go round!Bird on a Wire is one real and one sexy romance that's all dressed up as a deadly crime drama, and that's kind of why it can sometimes be misinterpreted. Bird on a Wire is a beautiful love story. It's best to enjoy this movie for the steamy romance relationship between the two main stars, Goldie Hawn and Mel Gibson. I know I did. I love you Goldie Hawn, and Mel Gibson. You're beautiful!'Like a bird on the wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir, I have tried in my way to be free.'

If you love adventure movies, this is one of the best I've seen. While around the same time as Air America, in 1990, here might of been one for Gibson lovers, that would take second place, if choosing to go and see it. I have to be honest, I really enjoyed this movie. It has a great story background, constant action, but also humour as well, as if on Goldie Hawn's part. At times, it seems she's overacting, and it could just be her character doing it. Mel and her make a great duo. Long haired Gibson, as Rick, who worked for Air America, had discovered he'd be used in some illegal smuggling, has gone under a new identity. Some bad arses, still after him (Carradine and Duke). He used to be the fun of the party in Hawn's life, while being a husband too. Presumed to be dead by Hawn, her absolution is thrown back into doubt, while recognizing Gibson at a gas station. Later that same night, the desperate, pain in the butt, Gibson, and I'm two terming it there, is forced to team up with Hawn and another adventure like olden days, begins. You so much wanna be part of their adventure. Here's one of those smaller mainstream movies, that really surprises you like they did in the nineties. And when the climax scene is set spectacularly in a zoo, with lions running loose whatever, (what a choice) it just another reason. Think of the original climactic setting in Kill Bill 1. This movie is just fun all the way, with funny circumstances, of course taking place during the action. It's what so good about this, it's not just action, but it's comedy, on a even keel I like. Too, we also feel Mel's bullet in the bum. He plays his irresponsible character here well. Carradine as the chief bad guy, also impresses. The only thing that really sucks here, is it strung together title. It's just out of whack, unfitting, no title appeal, as if unthinkingly slapped on, at the last moment.

I don't think this movie is as bad as some comments say, it is not a hit, but it is just the kind of movie I like very much and that IMHO are not being made anymore. It's a classical 90's easy-going action/comedy that won't disappoint anybody, who is not looking for a complicated plot and surprising end :)I really enjoyed watching this movie, especially thanks to a beautiful couple made by Mel Gibson and Golide Hawn. It's just one of those movies you can watch over and over again and it sill keeps you entertained (well, the final scene seems a little boring to me...).If you are looking for a nice action/comedy, check this one out, you won't be disappointed.

Thumbing through the reviews for John Badham's Bird on a Wire helped remind me of the particulars of why I hated this stupid, stupid movie in general. I remember going on a date to see BOAW, my girlfriend liking it, and me cringing a grin at the end.The things you'll do to get some.If brainless fluff (Goldie Hawn), ass jokes, and Mel Gibson acting sissified are your benchmarks for fine entertainment, I would strongly suggest you see this thing. Also, if it will help the evening along (if you get my drift).But, if anything with Badham's name on it raises your suspicions about the quality of a movie (and it should, because John Badham's picture is beside the entry "Hack Directors" in the big dictionary of film making), please avoid it.
