Summary: crawford and movie acting do not mix.
Review: Be it ever said that Cindy Crawford did not try new things, No she did, although the results were mostly a disaster. After so many years of being in front of a camera (Magazine shoots, Revlon Adds, and Various Fashion shows), Crawford tried to make the leap to film acting (although she never had any formal acting training at school), so she and her agent pursuaed Warner Brothers to cast her alongside Baldwin in this 1995 action thriller. The results were a huge disaster. The script was never really developed to make these charecters as anything other then comics drawings. Baldwin does not play a connvincing detective and Crawford is totally unbelieveable as a lawyer. Even the villians seem typecasted from a Van Damme film. You know that these two evenually end up in bed toether, but the scene seems rushed and forced upon the audience, The final action scenes seem a waste of money and filming. The movie bombed with both critics and the audiences, and the home video sales have also been under-welming. It might have been better if Crawford had been cast in a light romantic comedey where she is romanced by and evenually falls in love with a guy (who is like something of a shy person and not hunk material). That might have worked. But there is no use specualting now. The movie's failure marked the end of Crawford's big screen hopes and was a showcase for Warner Brothers to keep greenlighting bad pictures until one day they became known to their critics as "AOL FILMS."

Summary: Yet another reason Amazon needs to offer negative stars.
Review: Among the low-lights of this sorry action movie scripted by a dead-monkey's feces, Cindy Crawford outruns and jumps on to a speeding train. Meanwhile, Billy Baldwin is going about 80 on a car and can't catch up to the train! Cindy has some legs to be able to run about 100 miles per hour. Come on, we've come far enough that movies should not have unintentional mistakes in them. This one will remind you of "Plan 9 From Outer Space" only not quite as cerebral. Add the business-as-usual action, the unbelievable (as in bad) acting, especially from the supermodel, and the fact that it is just plain BORING. Cindy'll never work for Hollywood again. (hopefully)

Summary: Fair Game? Hardly!
Review: Cindy Crawford has long been one of my favorite models. However, that talent is unrelated to acting and sheer star power won't carry the day.

Cindy's portrayal of a KGB-chased, short-skirted lawyer was, well...not good. On several levels. The character was written paper thin and Cindy's ability to make herself believable was nonexistent. I'm sure she tried hard, as did Mr. Baldwin, who seemed more like an acting coach trying to save scenes than a costar. The plot was by the numbers, the pyrotechnics only so-so and the stunt sequences were beyond any credibility.

Unfortunately for us and her, Cindy's performance was the worst in my memory. But now I'm told a new low was reached by Denise Richards in "The World is Not Enough". But that's another story.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Did they do this on purpose?
Review: Did the producers set out intentionally to make a bad film? Could a movie this crappy be accidental? Is Crawford's character allowed to wear such short skirts in court? A poor movie all the way round, with only one highlight: Jeanette Goldstein as a kickboxing Russian assassin.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Very Bad
Review: Do not have any high expectations on this movie or else you'll be super disapointed. I like Cindy as a model but she is terrible as an actress.

Rating: 1 stars

Summary: Oooops!
Review: Hi Cindy, I am one of the four people who watched your movie Fair Game. I hope you will never work for Hollywood again. When I woke up I had to recognize that the other three guys had carried me out into the refreshing rain. That was good!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Hilariously bad
Review: How can the makers of this film have not known how bad it would turn out to be? The dialogue alone is so horrid, I don't know how the actors could say their lines without either groaning every five seconds or snickering. And if there is an award for the absolute dumbest action hero of all time, William Baldwin's character would win it hands down. As far as Cindy Crawford goes, well, she's nice to look at but wooden as a fence post (and that's putting it politely). Nicely staged action scenes, though.
