------------------------------------------------------------ I managed to catch 'Cloak & Dagger' this week during our local tightwad night, and I enjoyed it immensely. BASIC PLOT: Daydreaming kid (Henry Thomas) intercepts C&D video game cartridge with Top Secret plans in them. Bad guys find out and attempt to get plans back to sell to other country, and kill kid because he knows too much. The kid avoids becoming instant dog-meat by following the advice of super-spy Jack Flak. Good action and suspense, some really funny scenes, and not offensively cute. PEEVES: One of the people in the film is a computer dude named Morris. He's not a full geek, but it's close. Put this on the list after Wargames and Riptide (oops, there goes my rep!). PUZZLES: Music something-or-other was by Brian May. Anyone know if this is the same Brian May who plays with Queen? SUMMARY: Like I said in the beginning, I enjoyed it a lot. It was a fun film to watch, and I didn't mind paying $3 to see it. RB says check it out! Roger Bonzer tektronix!rogerb

Yes, the Brian May that did Cloak and Dagger is the same Brian May with Queen. Russ Pierce Denver, CO
