This action-romance comedy stars Academy Award® winners Mel Gibson and Goldie Hawn as a couple thrown together in less than ideal circumstances. He is Rick Jarmin, the college boyfriend whom she assumed was dead.

When he shows up alive and kicking, she wishes that he was dead. That is, until she finds out that a lot of other people want him that way too.

After turning a state’s witness against a bunch of very ugly people, Rick has been hiding under the Federal Witness Protection Program. He has been successfully living under the cover of one identity after another, but now has to confront his past when she blows his cover.

Director John Badham, of the 70's cult classic "Saturday Night Fever," skillfully orchestrates the chases, the explosions and the death-defying stunts that culminate in a spectacular climax at the zoo. In addition to running from the bad guys, Gibson and Hawn have to contend with six tigers, a lioness, three jaguars, a baboon, four alligators and an assortment of colorful four-legged extras.
