While not the most original movie ever written, it is sharp fun if you pay attention. Some very funny clever lines. What most people don't seem to realize is that this is a dark comedy, sly and witty. D'Angelo is good, not great, and delivers some terrific "Joan Collins" style vamp lines that are very funny...if you understand you are watching a dark comedy, not "Medea" of some TV cop show. Very enjoyable, start to finish, mostly because of the sneaky clever writing, All the acting is solid, and Barbara Rush makes a welcome appearance, still beautiful. The directing is pedestrian, admittedly, (like in most movies) but the script is very funny. My wife and I laughed out loud at many of D'Angelo's snappy lines: she has her tongue firmly in cheek, and seems to be having a great good time. Recommended for a fun evening. Drink some wine and have a giggle.

The most underrated actress, Beverly D'Angelo, is given a role that she can sink her teeth into. Her portrayal of the professional widow Vivian Fairchild was magnificent. Ms. D'Angelo captures the deceit of a career scam-artist perfectly, with sensual cunning and craftiness.Mackenzie Astin does a fine job as well, portraying a young man who has now lost both of his parents tragically.People should find much to like about this film. The jazz soundtrack was first rate as well as the sets. Leslie Horan is an ethereal beauty that should be seen more often.This film belongs to Beverly D'Angelo, although more screen time is given to Astin and his private detective, Dennis Haysbert(Major League's Serrano). She hasn't lost a bit of appeal over the years, and continues to amaze me by the depth she brings to her characters.

Harmless enough with zero originality and a hardly believable string of events with some very soft porn thrown in for good measure. The characters are inconsistent and unrealistic. The token Brit lawyer is hilarious to any British person as a typical American stereotype of anyone British and it is strangely late 80's for a mid 90's film in both fashion and originality. The best line is when the world weary private detective explains why he has lost his enthusiasm for the job -'I woke up one morning and realised I wasn't 25 anymore and it p****d me off'. Watch only if you have no other options and leave all senses of reasoning.

I happen to catch this flick on HBO one night, and gotta that it really wasn't too bad and actually had a pretty decent story(also kept enough interest for me to watch the whole thing), and though Beverly D'Angelo was beautiful she unfortunately was unconvincing as the evil seductress... then again alot of the actors were perhaps with the exception of MacKenzie Astin. The story was better than your average mystery/suspense and covered up the mediocre acting jobs, so not eveyone will be disappointed but then again not everyone will be satisfied. My suggestion is to catch it while it's on tv one quiet night.
