This movie is great. I got the DVD today(but had already seen the film). The DVD is great also, it has cast filmographies, trailer, and scene selection(also Spanish Sub-titles). Anyway, this movie is well written, acted, and produced. I would have added a few more scenes(to cover up a few questions that you may have about the movie), but other than that it is excellent. I give it 5(out of 5) stars! The official summary (on the back of the DVD is:): you meet a handsome man at a buisness party(it actually says dinner, but it was a party). You're dazzled by his charm(he's not that charming though). But what if that man was a player in a game of murder who was about to destroy your life bit by bit(it says other stuff, but this is a short version). Allie has a brief tryst with the man, but soon allie's job, safety, and sanity are all fair game.I think you should buy this film, it is great on video or DVD. I will definantly watch it again, again, and again.

Oh sweet sweet Jesse Spano, how I love you. Elizabeth Berkley is one fine babe. If she were a president, she'd be Babe-raham Lincoln. This movie wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either. The beginning is cool, when she's wearing that one hot dress hanging over her fine body when she meets the guy who frames her. The whole beginning of the film is fairly interesting, but then goes downhill after that and I stopped paying attention.

This suspense/thriller only got a 4.7 from IMDBers, but I'd give it another point, not quite a 6. As another reviewer said, Eliz is pretty good, better than in Showgirls, and she's never hard to look at. Interesting seeing her as an exec instead of a stripper in Showgirls, but some of those micro-skirts might almost be the same thing.The plot is ok, but the manner in which she is framed is just too much of a stretch. The movie will lose many viewers at that point ... the chances of things working out that way are about 1 in a million, and the framers are counting on it! But if ya can get by that, and like murder/suspense flicks, it's worth a couple bucks to rent. -Bob

Since 1995 Elizabeth Berkley has graduated -- entering the group of actors & actresses who can deliver a dramatic message convincingly. In "Random Encounter" -- unfortunately made for cable only -- she shows the range of acting capacity that is the trademark of the professional mature actress. High marks for her performance here! -- let's hope that she gets her break with this film.
