One of theatre director Peter Hall's spasmodic and invariably unsuccessful forays into the cinema, this rehash of Fatal Attraction stars Rebecca De Mornay as an ice-cool criminal psychologist whose self-possession leaves her when she meets Antonio Banderas in a supermarket. She quickly throws caution to the winds and they embark upon a torrid affair. But strange things start happening to De Mornay and her new beau is soon under suspicion. Boasting a butt-naked Banderas, this may make his army of female fans fearful of blinking, but the rest of us can safely nod off.
Risible thriller, stuffed with clichés and given a fashionable gloss with talk of multiple personality disorders and repressed memory syndrome; it is one memory that most audiences will be anxious to suppress.
Well acted and directed. I couldn't fault this excellently entertaining film. Good convincing performances from the whole cast.
A fatal attraction type plot, but all is not as it seems ! A must see for all fans of Antonio Banderas. Rebecca's acting left me a bit cold, but Antonio excelled as her intense and volatile lover. Very watchable.
