Bruce Willis is rather terrifying.....a man of many faces indeed

Willis makes a convincing villain

Lawrence Journal-World

An unusually tough and daring film for both Willis and Moore.

San Francisco Examiner

Not-half-bad murder-thriller potboiler.

A woman's abusive husband (Bruce Willis) is murdered quite bloodily in the back of a van at a fairground. The wife's friend (Demi Moore) is suspected - will she get away with it? It's up to Detective John (Harvey Keitel) to determine. Somewhat memorable after all these years, but nothing earth-shattering.

Director Alan Rudolph's eccentric style brings some interest to a fairly routine story. Although Demi Moore has a creditable stab at the heroine, it's Glenne Headly who steals the show.
