TheLittleSongbird I don't consider Pink Cadillac a terrible movie, just one I didn't care for. It is a well made movie, with a beautiful car, a good soundtrack, a few witty quips in the script, Clint Eastwood giving his all to the role and Bernadette Peters all bubbly and fun. On the other hand, I find the film rather dull, with a very sluggish first half, a mostly incoherent plot, characters that don't have much substance and you don't care much, some jokes that feel forced and lethargic direction.Overall, Pink Cadillac was not as bad as I thought, but considering how much I respect Eastwood, both as an actor and a director and a large body of his films, it could have been better. 4/10 Bethany Cox

Aaron1375 This movie is kind of a weaker "Midnight Run" film. I liked it a bit more than a lot apparently as it is scored rather low here. I found it rather humorous and I liked how it played out. I enjoy films of this nature just as I enjoyed "Midnight Run". This one has a bunch in common with that film, it also reminds me a bit of a film called "Dead Bang" with Don Johnson as the bad guys at the end were very similar. This one though is a bit of a road trip movie on a smaller scale than "Midnight Run", however it works in its own simple way. Mainly because Clint Eastwood is in it and he adds something to this movie to be sure. The film features Peters as a woman who is married to a guy who has been hanging with the wrong crowd. She ends up arrested, jumps bail with her husband's pink Cadillac and her and her baby are on the run. Enter Clint who is the bounty hunter assigned to tracking her down. Things are not all that cut and dry though as something of interest is hidden within that car. Like I said, for what it was I enjoyed it. It was not Clint's best movie, or even his best comedy, but I thought it was enjoyable.

TxMike Clint Eastwood is Tommy Nowak, making his living working for a bond company, tracking down and bringing back those who have jumped bail. The opening scenes establish his character by showing him in action in two different cases.Bernadette Peters has always been a favorite of mine. Here she plays a young mother Lou Ann. Her husband is mixed up with a gang of Caucasian supremacists who are also thieves. It turns out her husband and their friends have a big stash of counterfeit money and, when a raid happens she is the only one there, thus the one arrested. Out on bail, she slips away and Nowak is hired to track her down.This isn't a particularly good movie. The title comes from the car that Lou Ann's husband owns, and which Lou Ann and Nowak end up traveling in. There is a big gun fight near the end. But when it is over it all adds up to nothing much.

lost-in-limbo Skip-tracer Tommy Nowak is the man who chases down people who have jumped bail and to get his target he does it in many different disguises. Now his on the tail of Lou Ann McGuinn, who has hit the road in her husband's, pink Cadillac that has a quarter of a million in the trunk. Nowak is not only one after her, as the money belongs to a group Neo-Nazis that want it back. Eastwood has been in his fair share of duds and this one could be added to the list too. The lively rapport between Clint Eastwood and Bernadette Peters is what makes this forgettable outing admirably watchable. The offbeat premise comes across like a live cartoon, but when it goes for a serious drama touch it loses its spark, falls into a uneven patch and the tongue-in-cheek script just doesn't work with its grim sub-plot involving white-supremacists. It moves away from humorous gimmick to follow a systematically overlong and goalless old-hat narrative of two-dimensional good guys, bad guys on a road trip. Oh, and what bunch of numbskulls the bad guys were! These hammy Neo-Nazis have got to be most inept and over-the-top bunch of villains I've seen in any movie. Especially since I think they are supposed be realistically based, than being comically goofy (as they come across). They spit out a good quota of brainless drivel that simply bores you. Eastwood's joyfully loose performance has to be one of his better ones (though not the movie), which he generates warmth, wit and truly gives out zesty attitude that shows he loving every minute of it. A very cute Peters is delightfully good along side him and adds a real pluckiness to her seductively sweet-hearted character. Geoffrey Lewis is quite run in his minor role as the spaced out hippie. Bill Moseley shows up and there are blink and you'll miss them parts by Jim Carrey and musician Bryan Adams. Director Buddy Van Horn plays it straight with his filming techniques. It can feel drawn-out because of the relax nature of his style, but he does milk out some nice backdrops and minor characters along the trip. It does turn heavy-handed towards the end though, when a slight dose of action goes "Duke Hazard". Swift camera-work and a rousing country tied score are cooked up too. In all it's definitely one of Eastwood's lesser film vehicles that harmlessly passes the time in a light-hearted, mediocre pink Cadillac ride.
