An excellent movie from director Robert Zemeckis about a woman who writes romance novels (played beautifully by Kathleen Turner). She takes a trip to Colombia to rescue her sister from some kidnappers. The kidnappers want a treasure map that she has. On her way, she is accosted by an evil badguy, saved by Michael Douglas, follows the map to find the diamond, meets some Colombian drug-lords who adore her novels, and eventually makes it back to the States. Fast-paced story and excellent acting make this a movie worth watching. Also stars Danny DeVito.
