Reynolds' work is top-flight, making it all the more a shame that this vastly underrated film was a flop as a theatrical release. Full Review |

 |
So choppily assembled none of the various clues and innumerable suspects ever seem to lead anywhere. Full Review |

|
|
The case is crazy with clues, fights, new characters who fail to detain the attention, and all-important tapes containing something or other. The resolution is rubbish. Full Review |

Reynolds' performance as a tough former cop accused of murder is the best thing about this mediocre Jagged Edge wannabe.

I’m optimistic when it comes to spending a rainy Sunday with one of Michael Crichton’s books, but I’d be far less excited to see another of his films. Full Review |

...what on earth was [Michael Crichton] thinking when he agreed to helm this mess? Full Review |

Mr. Reynolds has appeared in a long string of stinkers in recent years, but this time, the trouble isn't his fault. Full Review |

Never for a minute do we think Burt Reynolds might be guilty, and even harder to swallow is that he and Russell could even like each other, much less become lovers. Full Review |

|
|
A showcase for Russell's amateurism, the director's ineptitude and the screenwriter's clogged pen. Full Review |

2/4 |
The problem is that there is no chemistry at all between Reynolds and Russell; they stand near each other and speak words of emotion, but there's not much light in their eyes and they don't budge the needle on the romantic voltmeter. Full Review |
