peanutsticks I'd compare this film to the made-for-TV movies by TNT titled, "The Librarian" (Quest for the Spear, etc). Like that series this movie contains:Relatively unknown actors; often nonsensical plot twists; cheesy dialogue; and out-of-place, over-the-top special effects.Yet somehow, like the Librarian TV-movies, it had enough entertainment value to keep me sticking around to see it to its end. Granted I have no plans to ever watch it again, but to see a movie of this budget produce the effects it did made me glad I watched it.If you are expecting blockbuster quality steer clear you will be very disappointed, but if you can accept it as more of a campy made-for-TV type movie and understand it only cost 5$M give it a peek.. you might just be impressed too.

kevindalby-1 I know this got a lousy review, but If you don't take it too seriously, it can be fun, ala "Romancing the Stone," and "True Lies." I was really hooked on Kristin Dattilo, who carries the film playing Claire Winslow, a prissy heroine who will do anything to track down her cheating fiancé. Even travel to a revolution plagued South American country. She is a cute, girl next door type who really reminded me of Sandra Bullock. It looks like she is just starting to get going in the movie world, I wish her well, and will definitely be looking for her in the future.Highly recommended if you're in the mood for a laugh. Give it a try when you can't find anything else you haven't seen, you'll be pleasantly surprised.

dbborroughs Told in flashback, a woman left alone for the holidays decides to surprise her fiancé by joining him in Switzerland. When she arrives and finds he was never there, she manages to track him to South America. From there it becomes a wild adventure as she hooks up with a scruffy reporter to venture into the jungle to find the man she loves.Okay, let me start by saying that this type of thing has been done before both better and worse. The first film that pops first to mind is Romancing the Stone because thats the current yard stick for films of this sort. While perhaps not as memorable as Romancing the Stone, Coronado is a damn close on the enjoyment level. Best of all Coronado doesn't take it self seriously at all. I groaned at the opening firing squad scene, only to lose any reservations in the next scene as our heroine began to tell her story to two guards in a jail. At that point it became obvious really fast that this movie had tongue in cheek and was out to have a good time, period. No its not perfect, but who cares, its fun.I can't recommend this film enough to anyone who wants a confection that may disappear from your mind not long after seeing it, but will make you smile while you watch it.8 out of 10 for those who accept this for what it is.

udeaasykle Another awful movie from Hollywood. This time a female helps the revolution in a central American country. yeah yeah yeah. Hey lets make a movie without any sense of realism AT ALL. I am so sick of movies like this one. The actors and actresses are lousy, the effects are cheesy and the dialog horrible. And suddenly i see John Rhys-Davies as the evil president. From Gimli to Hugo Louis Ramos. I bet he is very proud of this. Well i shouldn't have expected much of this movie and i didn't. And i am glad cause this sucks bigtime. I wonder what kind of people who like this movie. My guess is younger people aged 12-16. And i guess some people like because of Kristin Dattilo. Well i am in neither of those group and i hate it.
