Desperate for attention, Emily Hope (Silverstone) stages her own kidnapping. But before Emily can enjoy a happy reunion with her father, her car gets stolen-with Emily still inside. Quirky, cool a dhilariously romantic, EXCESS BAGGAGE is "the best film of the year: romantic, exciting and engaging!"

A light-hearted romance/comedy with some action and lovely 90's music. For those from the 90's who miss it, watch this movie to enjoy the memories that come back.
Both stars acted well together with a definate chemistry between them as if they were interested in each other but still a little shy.
A cute flick that has sexy cars, handsome Benicio Del Taro (as a not so smart guy) and adorable (though annoying at times) bratty Alicia Silverstone. They're perfect together as is this movie along with the amazing as always Christopher Walken.A fun ride - thenewguy
Excess Baggage is a light, funny film about a young woman who tries to get her father's attention by pretending to be kidnapped. The kicker is, while she's pretending, she actually is kidnapped, by a man who doesn't realise she's in the truck of the car he's just stolen.
What follows is part romantic comedy, part road trip and a good deal of silliness. Now the car thief wants to clear his name so people don't think he's a kidnapper, the girl wants her father's attention and people are moving in from both sides of the law.
The film is light, silly and a bit predictable, but it still has some good moments. People who have daughters or who are daughters will probably get a kick out of Silverstone's on-screen antics.
Of special mention is Benicio Del Toro. His performance is excellent as he moves between confident, nervous, resigned and hopeful. It's a simple movie, but good, clean fun.
