Two Thumbs Up For This Movie. - 5 out of 5  (6/20/1999)
Great Movie from WB, it was enjoyable one from them. I own for a long time but I have not seen it till few days ago I was so glade about it. Own it do not lose it. You will like it very much... You will see a great performance from Woody Harrelson (Money Train), Elizabeth Shue (Leaving Las Vegas) and the Director Volker Schlondorff (The Tin Drum, The Handmaid's Tale). You Will Like It Very Much Like Me.   more >>

A nice little surprise... - 4 out of 5  (2/8/1999)
I picked this movie up on a whim because it was only 15 dollars and I am an Elizabeth Shue junkie. Luckily, I was surprised at how good it was. Seeing Shue as a seductress was a odd change and everyone else in the film played their parts well. Of particular interest to me was Harrelson, as he played the role perfectly. The dvd itself has fine picture, as good a transfer as one could ask for. The sound is done well but it won't be giving your speakers a workout by any means. The only real   more >>

Rent befor you buy.... - 3 out of 5  (10/26/1998)
Interesting casting but the plot get's pretty ridiculous. Actresses Elizabeth Shue and Gina Gershon should have switched parts. Shue has a hard time trying to walk sexy in high heels and i found her character portrayal as a femme fatale more suitable for Ms. Gershon. Woody Harrelson does a descent job with what he has to work with. The transfer onto dvd is good and the sound is also descent, but not worth buying or seeing twice.   more >>
