David Nusair Reel Film Reviews Once For Hire reaches a certain point, even the most idiotic audience member should have no problem guessing what's going to happen next. Rated: 2/4 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member This movie has a nice twist, and Lowe and Mantegna act fine. But it moved a little slowly, and was one-dimensional in that we spend too much time with the hero, Lowe. I liked the bohemian aspect, though, of the "struggling actors" who drove cabs. The film was just a bit too cold and distant, and I didn't really feel involved. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
