Pablo Villaça Cinema em Cena Um roteiro estpido (e ilgico) que serve como mera desculpa para viabilizar uma produo softporn estrelada por atores 'B'. Rated: 2/5 Oct 4, 2004 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member I bought the dvd. Watched the movie. I should have said suffered through the movie. I now regret ever buying the dvd. Personally I have liked Ally Sheedy's work, generally speaking. Not this time. This disaster had good actors not performing well. There is nothing worse watching good actors doing a terrible job. To be perfectly honest the storyline was even worse than the acting. This probably helped make the acting so, so bad. Eventhough I saw the I'm still not sure what the film was about. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/26/24 Full Review Audience Member I didn't care for Ally Sheedy - I didn't know her career had sunk to the level of taking part in a movie this amateur either. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member A Good One To Fall Asleep To Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member A low budget thriller with a few recognizable faces in it, especially Patsy Kensit for UK audiences. The film poster makes the film look more interesting than it is. I was expecting more of a killer loose on a remote island, but it's not like that. Although not an erotic thriller it had quite a lot of nudity, by body doubles any how. Predictable but kind of ok for a watch once. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member If you're a fan of suspense, intrigue, action or deceit, then this movie is not for you. If you are willing to sit through a very slow, painfully obvious, hour and a half for a glance at some naked lesbian flesh (like I apparently was) then more power to you. The other huge question is why the heck is there a giant Rambo knife on the advertisement for the movie when there are none in the movie?! Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member A really used and abused story, of a person loving another person, who wants to take advantage of the first person's money. Here the two persons are two women, but it's not a plus, since one of the actresses is the monoexpressive Patsy Kensit. Icy-faced Stephen Baldwin doesn't help. Well, I didn't like it at all, but the environment and locations were fine. So, 2 stars. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
