cyanatus Anne Heche, Christopher Walken, Joan Chen, and Steven Bauer have never been better in this quirky, daring, amusing, and erotic thriller. Try to catch it on pay cable, where it's regularly aired. Apparently, the director's cut is even better.

Dr. Gore *SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT*I bought the unrated version of this movie. The video box cover has Christopher Walken rubbing his chin while staring at Anne Heche kissing Joan Chen's neck. The movie held promise. Based on this cover, I felt it was reasonable to expect Anne Heche to explore her love for Joan Chen. I was not disappointed.So Anne is a banker by day, hooker by night. It's never the other way around. You know, hooker by day, banker by night. That would be interesting. Anyway, Anne immerses herself in the world of money laundering with Walken and Chen. Anne falls in love with Chen in the process. This leads to the highlight of the movie. During a long lunch and a rendezvous in the bathroom, we see Anne fall slowly in love with the beautiful Joan Chen. This leads to their slow and VERY erotic sex scene. This pleased me. Some women look sexy with short hair and Anne Heche is one of them. She shows us her breasts on several occasions as well which is also a good thing. She is a strong actress as is Joan Chen so that made their falling in love scene that much sweeter. If I had to guess the movie was about anything, I would say it's about finding love where you find it. Anne falls in love with Joan, they have hot sex, and the viewer rejoices.

George Parker In "Wild Side", Heche, a bank exec by day and a call girl by night, gets involved with a night job client (Walken) who launders money, his wife (Chen), and his chauffeur and under cover cop (Bauer). The result is a silly, confused mess of a movie which has something to do with $169 million, a virus on a floppy disk, and Heche spending a lot of time outside her clothes and going lesbo for Chen. "Wild Side" is either a dark comedy talent showcase nonstory or a really awful and hokey drama or both. Reasons to watch are: (a) see a good cast go down in flames or (b) see Heche get naked or (c) both. (C)

kevin c A tense, sexy thriller that draws you in from it's opening scene. Walken gives his normal manic performance. However, it's Heche who dominates the screen. She gets the balance just right between victim and perpetrator.Ultimately Cammell is a distinctive talent in cinema, and his suicide was a loss.
