The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

There was something here with the female lead having this perfect life she's always wanted after the worst life possible, beginning as a child prostitute and winding up with Eric Roberts. But her background makes it impossible for her to trust Dean Cain and this utterly destroys it in the end. It sounds weird, but I like the position Dean Cain was in at the end and the choice he made. He can't hurt her because he loves her and she's the mother of his child (I think the time frame makes it clear it's his child and not his brother's), but at the same he can't forgive her for all she's done, sleeping with his brother (which shows the love and obligation he felt was pretty much one way) and then being part of his death. In better hands this would have been a better movie, but for something I caught on late night cable, it's not bad.

Watching this movie is a painful experience. It could not be worse. There were several ways the plot could have gone and the writers made a conscious decision to pick the absolute worst. Not a single character was developed in the making of this movie. Some characters appeared in the movie for no reason whatsoever. The dialog was an afterthought. As for the acting, I don't expect much from Dean Cain but in his defense he had nothing to work with. I can't even begin to figure out why Eric Roberts took the part. With all the movies and TV he's done he should know better and can't possibly need the money. The only positive I can say about the movie is I get paid to watch them.

Warning! Spoilers ahead! SPOILERS I've seen movie in German, so it might be, that I missed some clues. Despite some weakness in the plot, it's a movie that came through to me. I liked especially Lexa Doig's acting. Sometimes I got impression, that she *is* Camille. But I can't stop wondering, what happened at the end with Bob, Cassie and baby. I belive, she, after initially being set on Bob, eventually ended up loving him and regretting what happened with his brother and being forced to lie to him. Otherwise it's a bit strange, that she would carry his baby and love it. It's up to viewer to decide - and I don't like such endings. Dean Cain was as good as ever, Eric Roberts .. well, I've seen him better but also worse. I believe that the film is more an analysis of human relations and reacting in unexpected situations than a crime story. Bottom line is, I liked it very much.

Originally I rented this film with my boyfriend, since I am a fan of Dean Cain. Too bad he has a son and will likely marry the mother but anyway...While not in the mainstream... it was a very intriguing movie. I wasn't sure what to expect but I'm pleased with what I got... though I had trouble watching some love scenes. :o)I thought there was something wrong with me that it was left open ended... but I'm glad I wasn't the only person left scratching their head.
