Consequence

Cool action and an interesting story holding it all together. Rick Schroder and Lola have some great scenes together. I like the role reversals too: Armand playing the good guy for once and Ricky the villain.

It's definitely a movie where you have to pay attention in the open. A lot of set up and it moves pretty quickly.

This isnt a bad watch! Armand Assante puts on a good show; I enjoy his work. If you have seen his 2002 film "Last Run" and enjoyed that as I did then you will enjoy this flick...... The direction is superb with great action scenes to fill in any gaps. Out of ***** (5 stars) I give this film *** 3/4 stars, good Saturday evening film.

There are actions and there are consequences.

Nice thriller with average cast. A normal man with a brother with a past needs to change his life before his wife separates him and takes all his money.

It's always nice to see Armand Assante. He has a certain roughness and wildness, which combined with his smart thinking roles usually end up coming across well.

His co-actors and -actresses in this movie don't really live up to his standards - their acting here is limited to looking good, looking bad or looking crazy.

An OK flick, though, which you shouldn't go to the cinema to watch.

How far would you go to get big money? That's what this movie is all about. "Consequence" shows what happens when greed gets the best out of anyone. Sam Tyler(Armand Assante) is a surgeon who assumes his brother's(Max) identity. And everyone is up for grabs for the big one. However, someone will be greedier than the other. Kye(Nadia Kretschmer), Sam's wife and Eva(Lola Glaudini) Max's lover are a few up for grabs. I liked the part where Eva is "pleasured" at the bank. And also the shower scene where Kye and Eva were getting it on. Telling Max that Kye was about to screw him over. Both Max and Eva ended up being fair game. Rick Schroeder playing Sam's right hand man John Wolfe was amazing, I liked the chase scene between the VW Bug and the other cars. AMAZING! Max fixed him when he put the bullet in his gun psyching him out good. Then I liked the bathroom scene where Max ponders about Eva's intentions. Though I think her body is more persuading than her words. And the surprise was that his brother was "alive". Guess assuming your kin is more dangerous than Max bargained for, then again Eva was a victim of her own greed. Big money, means big trouble. To me this movie was intriguing, I would say my life is more important than any amount of money, millions or billions! Rating 2.5 out of 5 stars.

This one keeps you stuck in your seat with enough twists and turns and sudden swerves -- I think of Pulp Fiction with more blood -- plus an absolutely delightful VW Beetle escape drive at one point. The deadpan Assante signature works this time.
