This film is a cheap copy of the same old cliché 30's plus woman who falls in love with the typically perfect guy. Denise Richards is awful in this film, although, her acting improves somewhat towards the end when her character is called upon to be more assertive. I must say however, that NOT using Denise's well-known "assets" as a puller in this film is remarkable on behalf of the director. Surprisingly, Dean Cain carries this film quite well. There are some points of amusement overall, some quirky, black humour thrown in and the climax definitely is a refreshing twist. The narrative of Richard's character throughout the film is very annoying although it does serve a purpose - to remind the viewer that her character does think occasionally. Obviously Richard's is trying to be a credible actress. A good career move with this film, not for the viewer though. Don't waste your money on the video. Wait until it's on TV.
