| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Excess Baggage |
|---|
Emily Hope (Silverstone) is a spoiled rich girl who will do anything for attention from her less than affectionate father. She stages her own kidnapping, which involves her being locked in the trunk of her car. What she didn't expect was that Vincent (Benicio del Toro) would steal her car. After some initial fighting, they begin to fall for each other and soon they're on the run from real criminals.
