"Tequila Sunrise" is an incredibly turgid film for the most part and it seems to be much longer than it actually is which is the sort of underachievement any director worth their salt would be perfectly happy not to boast about at lavish Hollywood cocktail parties.

“A business on the line. A friendship on the edge. A woman caught in the middle.”
In a seaside California town, best friends Mac and Nick are on opposite sides of the law. Mac is a former drug dealer trying to clean up his act, while Nick is a high-profile detective trying to take down a Mexican drug lord named Carlos. Soon Nick's loyalties are put to the test when he begins an affair with restaurateur Jo Ann -- a love interest of Mac's -- unwittingly leading his friend into a police-orchestrated trap.
