Summary: Sharon Stone is hot
Review: The action is not the idea in this movie, it is the big shower scene. It is so sexy!!!! The music also makes it better... IF you like good shower scenes get this one other wise don't the action and everything else is out of wack.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: another action movie, only for Sylvester Stallone, yet...
Review: The movie does not have much talks as before for Sylvester Stallone, which is still working for this star. Small amount of the talks give very dramatic effects for Sylvester Stallone. The plot is kind of boring. But, viewing Sylvester Stallone is always a treat. Sharon Stone was not acting. No one really acted, but the entire setting was acted. It created an impression that the movie story is a part of the long stories that are told together for an epic of the '90's till 2005. And, the epic bores the audience. Strangely, the appearance of Sylvester Stallone in the epic seemed not bore the audience.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Escapist fun...
Review: The movie is not anywhere near as poor as some reviews note. Are there gaping holes in the plot? Is the acting wooden and sometimes unconvincing? Are the plot "twists" so predictable you see them a mile away? Yes to all three. But, anyone who sees a Stallone movie and expects Olivier's Shakespeare deserves what he/she gets. In short, if you're in the mood to suspend your disbelief and enjoy watching things blow up for a couple hours, this movie will fit the bill. There are better and worse movies out there... and I have enjoyed worse.

Rating: 2 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Explosive love story!!!
Review: The story of this movie is the following:

The parents of May (Sharon Stone) where killed before her eyes while she was a child. After many years she still could not thru these terrible memories out of her mind. Night horrors were eating her up. Specially, due to the fact that she remembered the names and faces of the killers. Finally, she decided to hire a bomb specialist who would assassinate the killers, members of the Miami drug syndicate. This bomb specialist, Ray (Sylvester Stallone), a former CIA agent, did not want to take a job in the beginning. He stared following May everywhere in order to understand her motives. After a while Ray felled in love with May; he saw that these criminals were really bad guys, and eventually called May and agreed to tale the job. If you want to know the end of the story, you should watch the movie.

What I liked the most about this movie is a beautiful and touching relationship between Ray (Sylvester Stallone) and May (Sharon Stone). They quickly felled in love with each other while speaking by phone.

Every character in this film was extremely well developed. All cast was precisely selected. Sylvester Stallone and Sharon Stone looked really great together! This couple was ideally chosen! The acting was superb by all of the actors, especially by Sharon Stone. This film also has a great music you will not forget as well as great shots of Miami.

There are not too many actions here. But it is a great thriller, and it is a beautiful love story. If you did not see it yet, you certainly should see it. Do not trust to anyone's opinion. Check it up yourself like I did.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: NO CHEMISTRY AT ALL
Review: There is no chemistry at all between Sly and Stone in this movie. But this is not the main reason for the failure of this garbage. WOods is very bad as the villain (one of the few times he is not good) and the script is a total mess. The producers wished that the appeal of putting Sly and Stone together would be sufficient.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Horrible
Review: This is a horrible cartoon of a movie. I couldn't believe how badly acted, directed and written it was. It was like a really bad TV movie. Actually, I've never seen a TV movie as bad as this one. And at least TV movies are free....

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Don't get sucked by becouse of all the good actors. I did.
Review: This movie I could not wait to see. The very day it came out I plunked down my money and sat in a theater and watched one of the worst movies ever made.
Well first i'll go over the "plot". Stallone plays Ray Quick a demolitions expert who is hired be Sharon Stone to kill a mob family that she has infultrated. The family killed her family years ago (just how many times are we going to have to have this same plot). Eric Roberts plays Stone's boyfriend/mob bosses son/patsy. Rod Steiger plays the family monarch and resident bad guy. James Woods is Ned Trent a crooked cop who Quick had issues with when they were both in the army.
This movie opens up in the middle and tries to tell the story in both flashbacks and present time format. All this dose is give you a real lost feeling right off the bat. All the actors are heavy hitters with Oscar nominations to thier credit but this is one of the missteps that even the best make. The only bright spot in this entire mess is Woods. Even with a bad script and foolish lines he still, somwhow, pulls the role off with flair and humor that, unlike the rest of the movie, was intended. This movie should just be forgotten as quickly as possable...
