2.0 out of 5 stars This is NOT Ruby Cairo, March 17, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Deception [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is the edited edition of Ruby Cairo, which was released in the U.S. Andy McDowell objected to the nudity in the original. "Deceptions" is the edited version. Ruby Cairo is only available overseas.
I give it 2 stars because it is not the original.

1.0 out of 5 stars Repeat: this is NOT Ruby Cairo!, September 10, 2005

By	Jean Bond "Jean" (Seattle) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Deception [VHS] (VHS Tape)

"Deception" is the edited version of "Ruby Cairo," which is not a great movie but which is better than this one. It isn't just the sex scene that was edited out, but a total of about 20 minutes. The movie makes more sense in the RC version, and the sex scene, though dark and in Andie's case a bit airbrushed, is worth seeing, especially if you are a Viggo Mortensen fan. I don't think it was the nudity Andie objected to, though, or not entirely. The scene ends in an act of contempt that would sting any woman. It effectively lets you know what the man's character is really thinking, but it's brutal in a subtle way. There is also, of course, the (apparent) age difference between the two characters. He looks about 10 years younger than she does, even with a beard.

3.0 out of 5 stars A rainy Saturday movie-, February 11, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Deception [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I enjoyed this movie. It is a mystery with a twist (the best kind) and since I enjoy the three main actors in the "triangle" (Andie, Liam, and Viggo) it was fun to wait for new and different scenes to compare (and on which to speculate) as the characters developed.
