Amazon.com:
Gary Sinise, who had built a certain following and credibility based on his work with Chicago's Steppenwolf Theater (which he cofounded with John Malkovich, among others), nearly used it all up on this ridiculous farm story, starring Richard Gere and Steppenwolf alumnus Kevin Anderson. They play a pair of Midwestern farmers who, thanks to a combination of bad luck, bad weather, and Reaganomics, are about to lose the farm that's been in their family for generations. Rather than give it up to foreclosure, they burn it down in an act of protest, then go on to rob banks and otherwise become hayseed Robin Hoods (even attracting the attention of a Rolling Stone reporter played by Malkovich in one of the film's silliest touches). But Gere overacts and Sinise can't transcend what is essentially a witless and unlikely script by Chris Gerolmo. --Marshall Fine

Rating:  - The most meaningfull Richard Gere movie ever, a must !!!!

RGs caracther is the big brother, and finds out that if the bank are going to buy the house, then he would rather burn the whole farm down, which both him and his brother(Played by the equally talented actor Kevin Anderson) decides together that its good to do. It al have horrible consequenses as the police are trying to get them. ... Read More
