Serious contender for the so bad it's good sweepstakes. "CrackerJack" is a cliche loaded "Die Hard" clone that despite the straight to video, low budget, bad acting, plastic model blow ups, zero logic script, instant romance, indestructible hero, and on and on, delivers some chuckles because everything is being taken seriously. Christopher Plummer probably wishes he never signed on for this bomb, but he plays his bad guy to the hilt. The rest of the cast appears to be walking through their lines wishing they were somewhere else. There is no point in doing anything here except sitting back expecting bad everything, and marveling at the total ineptitude on display. The film has a touch of gratuitous nudity, a cavern that looks like it was made out of PlayDough, exploding helicopters, exploding areal tram, and an avalanche. If you are in the mood for a good bad movie, you could do a lot worse. - MERK
