VOLUNTEERS.


Once upon a time there was a comedian named Tom Hanks who starred in many great comic films such as Bachelor Party,Big, The Burbs and this film Volunteers. He was a naturally gifted comic actor with great timing. In this film for instance he easily held his own on screen against John Candy, and John Candy was ON FORM in this movie!.
Sadly, later he decided to focus on more serious dramatic roles. Ok they were really good films but I do wish he'd do a few more straight up comedy's. For those that are interested in Mr Hanks early career VOLUNTEERS is a great film to see and an awful lot of fun. He also co-stars with Rita wilson, the woman he would marry and Tim Thomerson (Trancers) as a CIA nutter who has named his knife and is keen on spiriting poor Rita away for some opium fueled rapey times.

Can't believe I hadn't seen this up till now!
