Can't honestly say it's a good movie, but it is entertaining! A romantic action-comedy that both guys and girls can enjoy. Most things are over the top (chasing-scenes, dodging bullets) and don't make much sense storywise. The romantic moments aren't awfully romantic and the comedic moments aren't laughoutloud funny, but this movie still manages to provide some mindless entertainment and put a mild smile on your face. Kind of recommended for a laidback evening with your girlfriend/boyfriend, when you don't really want to focus on the movie, but still want to be entertained. Just don't expect a particularly good movie.

Michael Douglas is giving Indiana a run for his money.

Romancing the Stone is an interesting watch for me. During my lifetime I never considered Michael Douglas as an action star and Kathleen Turner was one of the most beautiful women in the world at the point this movie is released. Robert Zemeckis crafts a very fun action adventure here. I never really understood the comparisons to Indiana Jones. The action doesn't hold up perfectly anymore but the movie is really fun and I like the characters.

Kathleen Turner plays a mousy romance novelist who’s drawn into a South American adventure when her sister is kidnapped by an international smuggling ring. Fresh off the plane, she meets a slobbish, wannabe Indiana Jones (Michael Douglas), who agrees to act as her bodyguard and tour guide... for a More

This film does make you realise just how good Harrison Ford was in "Indiana Jones" (also 1984) and how good Danny DeVito is in this - but as far as Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner go, well they are really pretty mediocre. He is "Jack", the dashing rogue who ends out helping slushy fiction writer More
