crap movie about .. cheater wife is always a cheater... aggressive husband stopped using brain.

I watched this whole movie in fast forward (20 mins tops) , because its gets stupid then more stupid. the only little good thing is ending.

Even its late 90s movie , so i thought it would be some good direction and story line but yeh i forgot its TV MOVIE. so the director didnt put much effort in it.

married couple with a daughter moved to small town to REPAIR the broken marriage , because wife was unfaithful , so instead fixing it , she gone AGAIN for some romantic action. this where the movie goes very stupid. means how or why the hek she drops panties soo FAST for hot stud. it gets more stupid , when husband SUSPECT that there is something going on but Ignored the wife like nothing happened and suddenly he got violent ?.

but anyhow, a little relief in the end. that she got what she deserved.

Good Cast But So-So 'Soap'

Interesting lead actors and their characters were involving enough to make me stick it out to the end of this so-so film. Sam Elliott played the only likable character. He's solid as the lawyer in here.

Mary McDonnell, famous for playing "Stands With A Fist" in "Dances With Wolves," plays a cheating wife and Randy Quaid, usually a comedian, is anything but here, playing an abusive husband.

Most of the story is told in flashback after Quaid is killed fairly early on.

It's kind of a soap opera at times but kept my interest going just to see what would happen to McDonell's character, "Teri Hansen."

The title says it all!

Teri Hanson(Mary McDonnel)is definitely undone. Teri and Allan Hanson(Randy Quaid) have just moved to California to make a new start and to try and save their failing marriage. Allan is really angry and abusive. Teri is very lonely and she meets Jim Mercer(Benjamin Bratt), a life guard at the pool where she swims. Now Jim is a gorgeous, be-still-my-heart man. He is a gigolo though. Soon things heat up. The story twists and turns from there through out the movie. (Sam Shepard is a handsome lawyer, who's wife has died recently.) It's an okay movie. The twist at the end leaves you with your jaw on the floor and some unanswered questions. I would watch it just for that reason.

If you are a Benjamin Bratt fan, you have to see it just cause he is drool worthy as the sleazy lover. There are some steamy scenes between him and Mary McDonnel.

yuck

A good cast is wasted on what might have been an intriguing story. Unfortunately, it is hurt by the execution. This slow-moving film looks like it was made on the cheap - in fact, parts of it appear to have been filmed at a motel. Mary McDonnell, a wonderful actress and a beautiful woman, is miscast as a femme fatale. Her hair is unnaturally dark and apparently the cameraman despised her. How she tells Benjamin Bratt (wasted in a poorly-defined role) that she's 36 with a straight face is a tribute to her acting.

It's a shame because the story was an interesting one, not going exactly the way one expects. But I wonder how many people stuck with it long enough for the plot to unfold. However, miscast or not, it's always a pleasure to see McDonnell, and great to see Sam Elliott.

Great movie women undone

She's a beautiful woman and she's a great actress I love the movie as even randy quid is a great actor himself, I get she had cheated on him but they both did a great job in the movie.
