Medical science vs. spiritual healing. That's the central conflict of Warner Bros.' "Sunchaser", a road/buddy movie directed by Michael Cimino that's essentially a lightweight vehicle carrying a heavy thematic load. Although this ambitious but uneven cinematic contraption glides along with plenty of visual energy, its cliched underpinnings and generic framework can't carry its philosophical weight. Other than cineastes who have earnestly charted Cimino's varied career, "Sunchaser" is a slight vehicle that's not likely to lure more than roadside-attraction curiosity travelers.
In the battling-buddy format, Woody Harrelson and Jon Seda star as polar opposites. Harrelson is Dr. Michael Reynolds, an overachieving UCLA physician who is on the fast track up the medical ladder. Seda plays Brandon "Blue" Monroe, an East L.A. gang-banger who is suffering from a rare form of terminal cancer. In writer Charles Leavitt's ambitious scenario, Blue kidnaps Dr. Reynolds while being examined at UCLA. He forces the physician to transport him to an isolated Arizona mountaintop where a "medicine man" dwells. With no faith in establishment medicine, Blue believes he can only be healed through the spirit.
While traveling the familiar road-show course -- they encounter bikers, rattlesnakes, gospel singers, sultry waitresses -- as well as building the battling-buddy dynamic, "Sunchaser" works best when it is not belaboring the science vs. spiritual debate. As he showed in "Thunderbolt and Lightfoot", Cimino knows how to juice a road movie. The pacing is quick and light, and the thrust is generally kinetic. Unfortunately, its central story debate tends to weigh down too heavily, as the good doctor argues in favor of "modern medicine," while cancer patient Blue advocates a more spiritual approach. It's not hard to determine on which side the filmmakers' sensibilities rest, and "Sunchaser" ultimately becomes didactic in its themery.
Overall, this Regency Enterprises presentation is solidly forged with first-rate technical contributions. Composer Maurice Jarre's neo-Western score reverberates with a strong and serene current, while cinematographer Doug Milsome's expansive framing and masterly mountainscape compositions convey a power and wisdom that far transcends mere science.
The performances are uniformly fine. As the anal, ambitious doctor, Harrelson gyrates and fidgets with the fitting arrogance of a big-time physician; Seda is terrific, managing to be menacing and gentle. Supporting players are well-cast, with Anne Bancroft doing a particularly heady turn as a touchy-feely doctor of psychology.
