5.0 out of 5 stars Looks like trash, but it's so much more then that, August 25, 2001

By	Andrea Gidusko (Denver, CO USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Cool Surface [VHS] (VHS Tape)

When I first saw this movie I HATED it, could hardly even watch it, but Teri Hatcher is my favorite actress so I felt I had to give it a shot, and now I love it...the weird thing is I can't really tell you WHY. It's one of those movies that you just have to get into, which isn't easy and it is hard to care about the main characters. Dani Payson (Teri Hatcher) is an actress who really will do anything she has to to be a star, and seduces a writer, Jarvis Scott (Robert Patrick) to get the lead in his new play. Jarvis doesn't have all his marbles as it is, after finding the body of his wife after she MAY have commited suicide, hard to tell but you start to feel differently about this scene as the movie progresses. I don't want to give a lot away, and even though the movie is probably best known for it's nudity, it is a great movie that is very intriguing and suspenseful. A must for any real Teri Hatcher fan and Robert Patrick fan.

3.0 out of 5 stars ok, November 12, 2005

By	Highlanderthal "LONE WOLF" (Massachusetts) - See all my reviews

I saw the movie years ago while she was on Lois and Clark, before the Desperate housewives craze.It was an ok movie , nothing special and I really dont think anything changes because of her (Teri Hatcher) newfound fame. The big calling card of the movie is Teri Hatcher nude,if this is why you want to watch the movie it will not disappoint,and as I said earlier it was OK>

5.0 out of 5 stars Steamy fun - perfect popcorn film!, October 26, 2005

By	Matthew J. Adams "Film Lover" (U.S.A.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Silly & trite, but sexy and a good time. Grab the candy bowl, butter the popcorn. This is a must for any and all Teri Hatcher fans and is pretty good B-movie fare - a very decent performance from Mizz Hatcher, both in and out of clothes!
