As Good As Dead is a crude externalization of xenophobic fears shaped, at least for a while, into a halfway decent thriller.

NYC Movie Guru

Often implausible and convoluted with stilted dialogue and an irritatingly over-the-top performance by Frank Whaley.

Rated: 4.75/10

I don't think people understand this movie. It's slow and subtle. It's also about extremism both on the left and the right how both extremes means in the center. It was compared to American history X Andie MacDowell's performance is amazing.

Very underrated and quite overlooked. This film had a decent story with amazing scenes of suspense and tension. It was a breath of fresh air, this one.
