Thunder in Paradise

1993 · 104 min

A loud, silly, sun-soaked action comedy that plays like a feature-length TV pilot, all cheesy one-liners and speedboat chases.

Directed by
Douglas Schwartz
Genres
Action, Adventure, Comedy
Tagline
Danger. Excitement. Adventure. It's just another day in paradise.
Overview
Terry "Hulk" Hogan stars as R. J. "Hurricane" Spencer who is an ex-Navy S. E. A. L. and confirmed bachelor struggling to make ends meet. In order to save his superboat THUNDER (and ultimately, his business) Spencer is forced into a marriage of convenience with the snobby Megan Whitaker. When Megan gets kidnapped it's up to Spencer and his partner Bru to save the day or risk losing everything.
How it feels
Campy, light, absurd and romantic. Brisk and fine in the background.
About
Crime, family, betrayal, survival
Content
Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
