When straitlaced, yuppified G-man John Buckner (Kiefer Sutherland) is assigned to escort ex-60's hippie radical Huey Walker (Dennis Hopper) to the federal pen for past crimes, the agent finds that the old burnout is a little more cagey than he counted on. Walker gets Buckner intoxicated and steals his identification, landing the FBI agent in jail instead of Walker. Hopper and Sutherland lampoon the differences between the idealistic 60s and the money-grubbing 80s in this 1990 action comedy. [More]

Reviews for Flashback
A lot more entertaining than first looks would indicate. Plus it’s always fun to laugh at the 1980s.
It has its moments of reliving the past before it turns into a silly and unimportant film...
