hayley b 04/15/2019 really unfortunate production, however.. I feel like the general plot of the film was actually good, if you can manage to look past it's production and lack of good direction it's actually a pretty good film.. but the ending was bad. I genually feel this could have been a fantastic movie in the right hands, it's mediocre. See more 10/09/2006 Bland thriller mystery, too slow mopving for my taste. Their is a definite lack of chemistry between Treat Williams and Virginia Madsen. CCH pounder is very good in a supporting role. So-so. See more Read all reviews
