What sustains ''Key Exchange'' is not surprise, but the intelligence of its characters and of the people who made it. Go to Full Review Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times 01/01/2000

ashley h @ashleyhobgood87 02/05/2012 Key Exchange is an interesting film. It is about a young woman who wants her boyfriend to commit to her. Brooke Adams and Danny Aielo give excellent performances. The screenplay is well written. Barnet Kellman did a great job directing this movie. I enjoyed watching this movie because of the awesome characters. Key Exchange is a must see.
