Outsider penetrates strange new environment on dangerous mission. Now fill in the blanks. Outsider: tough Chicago cop. Strange new environment: New Orleans and Cajun suburbs. Dangerous mission: to avenge his partner's evisceration. The details (a tattoo of a blue parrot on the mystery woman's shoulder, a ponytail on the villain, a snack of raw crawfish) are too scant and too trivial, and the players are too Richard Gere and too Kim Basinger, to freshen the formula. Directed by Richard Pearce. (1986) — Duncan Shepherd
