Synopsis:
Denzel Washington and Mimi Rogers star in this witty, romantic, entertaining and light-hearted whodunnit. Filled with spice and adventure, The Mighty Quinn is a delightful sunny Caribbean caper. Life in the easygoing Carribean is hard on Police Chief Xavier Quinn (Washington). Dubbed "The Mighty Quinn" by sarcastic islanders and nagged by a wife who`d rather he were babysitting, Quinn is suddenly thrust into action when his childhood friend Maubee (Robert Townsend) is accused of murder.

Forced to serach for his elusive friend, Quinn meets up with a colourful array of suspects, including the dead man`s beautiful mistress (Rogers) who dreams of being a lounge singer, an eccentric voodoo sorceress with snakes in her parlour (Esther Rolle) and a mysterious American visitor with dubious intentions (M. Emmet Walsh from the Coen Brothers` Blood Simple).
