The River Wild Summary Hang On Tight For A Suspense-filled Action-thriller Starring Oscar-winner Meryl Streep In A Stunning Performance That Will Take Your Breath Away! Streep Portrays A Former River Guide Who Arranges A White-water Rafting Trip To Celebrate Her Son's Birthday And Salvage Her Shaky Marriage. Her Skills And Courage Are Soon Put To The Test When Three Mysterious Strangers Threaten To Turn Their Vacation Into A Living Hell. Also Starring Kevin Bacon And David Strathairn, This "pulse-pounding Thrill Ride" (rolling Stone Magazine) Explodes With Action, Suspense And Unforgettable Storytelling From The Director Of L.a. Confidential.

Meryl Streep tried her hand at action films with this Curtis Hanson film and proved herself quite credible, bringing emotion as well as the willingness to kick butt. She plays a suburban mom and former white-water rafting guide who is taking her family on a raft trip for summer vacation. But overworked Dad (David Strathairn) can't make the trip, so she and her son leave without him--and walk right into trouble. Killers on the run (Kevin Bacon, John C. Reilly) abduct them and force Streep to take them down the most dangerous stretch of river to elude the cops. Hanson understands how to pace and construct this kind of action fodder, but it's strictly formula stuff, enlivened only by the depth of Streep's portrayal and the viciousness of Bacon's character. --Marshall Fine
