Renegades
Dir: Jack Sholder
1989
*
A forgotten action thriller from the 80's that is probably best forgotten. I'm sorry for bringing it up again really but I'll keep it short and to the point. It's a misguided mess that contains an incoherent story of bad cops, diamond heists, native Americans and general nonsense. It's never really clear who the bad guy is either because they're all nasty people, everyone kills at least one person each unlawfully and everyone breaks basic traffic laws. You only know who the real baddest of the bad guys is because he has slick hair and owns a horse. When the story starts to make no sense there is either a sudden car chase or a shoot out to draw your attention away from the painfully obvious fact that no one has any idea what they are doing.
