Excess Baggage

About This Movie

Excess Baggage is a peculiar mix of action and comedy, with a dash of crime that gives it a quirky edge. The film follows a spoiled rich girl, played by Alicia Silverstone, who orchestrates her own kidnapping, only to find herself trapped in the trunk of a stolen car. It’s a wild ride, honestly. The pacing can feel uneven at times, oscillating between slapstick humor and genuine tension. Benicio del Toro delivers a solid performance as the hapless car thief. The practical effects are nothing groundbreaking, but the situations are often absurd enough to keep you engaged. The film’s themes of privilege and consequence are woven in a somewhat clunky way, which adds to its offbeat charm. Definitely one of those films that sticks with you for its sheer oddity.
