An updated noir thriller that decisively puts the fatale back into femme fatale.

TV Guide's Movie Guide

Fiorentino's performance and screenwriter Steve Barancik's tightly-coiled narrative provide a riveting look at desire, sex, and theft in the big city.

Fiorentino lights up this stylish noir classic and breaths new, menacing life into the femme fatale role. Barbara Stanwyck would be proud.

Linda Fiorentino gives her best performance in a movie that will go down as a genre classic.

A lushly vile Fiorentino makes this a must see.

A movie so breathtakingly vile it has to seen twice to be savored fully.

Just as Bridget runs over the men in her life, Fiorentino takes control of this movie and just goes her own way at full-throttle.

[A] well-paced, cleverly written and quite diabolical thriller.

Linda Fiorentino is the ultimate in cold-hearted, erotic, brainy, dangerous, femme fatales.

The movie is a spirited attempt at modern film noir, and huge parts of it are enjoyable.

An amoral black comedy-noir with a selfish and ruthless heroine (wonderfully played by Linda Fiorentino) that joins the ranks of Mary Astor (Maltese Falcon) Stanwyck(Double Indemnity), and Kathlees Turner (Body Heat).

[A] tortuous, well-acted, witty, crisply photographed and immensely enjoyable thriller.

Dahl has fun with this material, filming the modern-day noir potboiler with such gusto that it's impossible not to fall under its spell, nor under the influence of its sultry, completely conscienceless leading lady.

Clever thriller with excellent work from Fiorentino and a surprisingly sinister Pullman

Mr. Dahl was good to begin with, and now he's badder and better.

Linda Fiorentino turns in a sharp performance as perhaps the screen's nastiest femme fatale, ever.
