Ishtar
“Telling the truth can be dangerous business.”
ComedyAdventure
Two terrible lounge singers get booked to play a gig in a Moroccan hotel but somehow become pawns in an international power play between the CIA, the Emir of Ishtar, and the rebels trying to overthrow his regime.
VIBE
A bewilderingly earnest, yet utterly misguided, adventure. It’s a bizarre, nonsensical trip through the desert, filled with tone-deaf performances and baffling choices. A true cinematic oddity that defies explanation.
