    Postal inspectors investigate identity theft

    This is way above the general standard of TV movies. Beautifully acted by the two likable leads as well as terrific baddie who reminds me of an actor from years ago who always played baddies but I cannot remember his name (Barry something?). An unusual plot, identity theft and a very credible storyline apparently based on truth, albeit probably a composite, it moves at a cracking pace grabs you by the throat from the very beginning and does not let go until the last frame. Throw in the odd bit of humor and crisp direction and cinematography and you have a movie that could easily have been shown in movie theaters. My only criticism is that these guys are postal inspectors and you just have to wonder where all the real policemen were. Just sit back in your armchair and enjoy.

    Unlike most sequels, this one is equal to its predecessor

    Most sequels try to capitalize on an earlier success by "slapping together" a production. Not this one. I hope that number two is the second of a series of equal quality. Gossett and Silverman make a good team and give excellent performances. The story revolves a con man who is using stolen mail to get credit cards issued in someone else's name. He kills a bank teller to cover his tracks and comes close to killing another. Excellent editing and directing.

    Got your shredder yet??

    Two US postal inspectors (Gossett & Silverman) uncover an identity theft scheme with a particularly dangerous perp Madsen). In addition to being an okay made-for-tv whodunnit, this film gives insights into how identity theft, a crime on the rise which can hit anyone anywhere anytime, and how to prevent it. Worth a look. Got your shredder yet?

    I remembered this film for years.

    I've just watched it first time after over 20 years, more like 23. I've remembered this film all these years and that proves something. I wanted to watch it but it just wasn't available. Recently, however, there was an opportunity to watch it legally online and while looking for it I finally found it. The plot grabs your attention and keeps you in suspense, you are curious about what will happen next. The climate of those years, the 90s, those actors. Great acting, for the role of the villain could not have been chosen better actor than Michael Madsen. Checking wikipedia I learned that a little over a month ago Louis Gossett Jr. Passed away. May God bless his soul.

    And one more thing, I am Polish but I was not offended : - )

    Great to see them back!

    It was a pleasure seeing Gossett and Silverman recreating their characters in a movie even better than the original. While the crime being investigated is less dramatic than in the first film, it is both more common and -- as the film develops -- creepier, creating a feeling of threat that any viewer can feel. Once again the plotting and dialog never strokes a false note and the film-making craftsmanship keeps things cooking along at just the right pace, intermixing the criminal investigation with the exploration of characters you'd like to have as friends. I hope there'll soon be a number 3.
