CoffeeHouseAdam I love this movie, the acting is very strong by Andrew McCarthy. It's awesome to see a movie take place in Connecticut and specifically feature places like Elizabeth park, Hartford, Essex and you can even see Hartford Whalers stuff in the house. its not common to see a movie with a connecticut setting. its not filmed there but that does not matter to me. its the setting that makes it interesting to me as well as the story line and emotions involved.

wee_honey2002 My main interest in seeing this film was Andrew McCarthy, as I have been a fan since I was a kid.I found the film to have a good story, occasionally predictable, but you will still want to watch till the end to see how everything plays out.Easily watchable, and Andrew McCarthy is brilliant as always. Paul Sorvino puts in a good turn as the cop, although the children are a bit wooden.As long as you dont have high expectations, it will surprise you.

Sebastian-20 Note: May contain possible spoilers!Richard Ramsey gets a phone-call from a man who claims that Richard's wife hired him to kill him for $10,000. When he meets him one evening, the hitman is shot to death himself. Not much later his wife Sarah Ramsey is also murdered, and Richard is the main suspect. After that the story gets more complicated, and there are several people who could have murdered both. For example Abe Shinoda, a Japanese partner of Richard's. Also Richard's stepfather Owen Jessop could have had his reasons to do it. And then you have Leslie Bullard, a friend of Sarah and Richard. As I said, complicated.Overall a decent little film, with nice acting by (for example) Paul Sorvino (Lt. Farrand), Connie Britton (Leslie Bullard), Kate McNeil (Sarah) and Andrew McCarthy (Richard), one of the less fortunate Bratpackers. I rate this film a 7/10!

Doctor_Bombay Grabbed this one purely because I needed a Kate McNeil fix. Getting harder and harder to find her these days.The poor early dialogue and overdone exposition made me think this is another cheesy cable drama, but once the story begins to unfold (and the dialogue lessens) it really rolls out into a darn good thriller. Many different suspects (the parents, the friend, the lover, the co-worker), lots of motives keep you guessing.Its no frills, you won't have anywhere near the production value of Seven, Silence of the Lambs, or even Kiss the Girls. And try not to pay too much attention to Andrew McCarthy, or Paul Sorvino for that matter, as their minimalist approach to character will only distract you from the story.Too bad this little script ultimately found itself in the low-budget land of straight-to-video. A little TLC and a few bucks could have paid big dividends here.All in all a very pleasant surprise.
