Rating: Summary: Doesn't Say, Do, Thrill or Entertain Enough. Review: This is the Kind of film that is.. Just.. There. (Get what I'm saying.. No.. Neither do I) It isn't really an Action Movie, or a real Thriller, or a real Drama, it Certainly isn't a Comedy; and though I Love the 3 Priciple Performers, I Cannot Recommend the film, not even to their Die Hard Fans.Kurt Russel and Madeline Stowe Star as the Terrorised Two-some, while Ray Liotta Co-stars as the Terroriser. All three give somewhat Bored, Lifeless performances. Liotta especially, his Psycho here is the Polar Opposite to his Psycho in "Turbulence" while Kurt's lead is Far from the Nervous Husband in "Breakdown". Madeline comes off Best, but like the Males, she has played this role Many times before, and with more Assured Performances. What the film Does have going for it is it's Climax, the Actors come to life a little and we get a Satisfactory Conclusion. The Whole Film is Satisfactory when you think about it, (3 stars equals satisfactory) but I wanted.. Neigh.. Deserve More than that. I suppose seeing Russel and Liotta Face Off is worth the Rental Fee though Johnathon Kaplan's Directing and Pacing leave a lot to be Desired, as does the Screenplay which takes a Far while to get Going, and doesn't reall go anywhere. Like I said before, It Looks like a Thriller, It Sounds like a Thriller, but it Just Doesn't Thrill. What I Suggest Genre fans do is see the Richard Gere film "Internal Affairs" instead, it has a Similar, but Superior Storyline and Much Better Performances and Directing.
Rating: Summary: Superb Thriller, 5 stars. Review: This movie brings it all: suspense,action,romance and chills! Ray Liotta is amazing as a nice guy cop who slowly falls apart and becomes a delusional lunatic that is obsessed with his newly found freinds wife .Madeline Stowe is great as a bored houswife that falls for Liottas creepy charm despite the warnings of her somewhat helpless but revenge drivin husband played by Kurt Russell who also turns is a heartfelt performance.It all comes to an intense and action packed climax at the end. Liotta steals the show with his uncanny ability to be a warm & charming freind one minute and an ice cold & diabolical killer the next.
Rating: Summary: great film Review: This movie has all the right elements, and creates one entertaining and suspenseful movie! Ray Liotta was just remarkable in this movie, and those interesting eyes of his makes you think you are looking into the pools of insanity! The movie is so suspenseful, I was on the edge of my seat waiting for the conclusion... which didn't let me down for a second. This is one excellent movie, and I highly recommend it.

Rating: Summary: SUSPENSE & SURPRISES! Review: This was one of the first Ray Liotta movies I ever saw. He was excellent, his character was phony & evil (like usual)lol, but he's such a great actor, (not to mention he's from New Jersey: like ME)! He is also quite a HUNK! lol, Kurt Russell was excellent and gorgeous too! Madeline Stowe was very good too. I don't recomend this for young teens, there are some sickening parts! I saw it on a pay channel, years ago, it's a GREAT movie,get it, you won't be disapointed.
