Return to Paradise (1998 film)

I was watching this movie the other day on HBO "Return to Paradise" and it touched the emotional chord... I dont watch stories with sad endings or the one's that leave you wondering what happened later even though I like them - I guess I dont like the fact that I get so much into the movie and at the end of it my eyes are swollen and my nose red :-) This movie is a must watch - for one Vince Vaughn looks great, and the other it reinforces the belief that there is humanity and there are people with emotions and affection for others. Though the cynical me says it was only a movie and is always far from reality, but for now I'll believe the message is true and exists among us.

The story is about 3 friends who are on a pleasure trip to Malaysia. While two friends return back to New York the third decides to travel on and is arrested for the possession of the drugs the three had purchased. The two friends must now return to serve their share of sentence or else their friend will be hung in 8 days. Read the plot on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Return_to_Paradise_(1998_film).
