Spider's Web

I think they tried to make this another sort of Wild Things. You know, lots of double-crossing and triple-crossing, etc. However Wild Things was a fun ride all the way through, this one isn't.

I noticed that both Kari Wuhrer and Stephen Baldwin were not only the stars of the movie, but they were co-executive producers. I wonder if these two stars just wanted an excuse to make a movie where they could be naked together? I can't see any other purpose for this film.

I failed to see what the point of this movie is. The only thing I found entertaining was looking at Stephen Baldwin's excruciatingly sexy body. The movie went nowhere and Wuhrer gave a cheap corn-ball performance. If you are thinking about renting this movie, don't. Wait until it comes to cable. You'll thank me later ;)

A cheap movie - and not only because it is low budget. The action pretends to be about a cheating scheme in the high tech capitalist venture world. It actually is just confusing and predictable at the same time. Directing and camera work are close to ridicule, and acting does not get higher than low quality TV dramas. Steve Baldwin is shaming the Baldwin name by participating in this movie. Even the erotic scenes seem to be just there to fill in the time. 4/10 on my personal scale. Avoid it!

stylish visual choices and expensive-looking locations highlight this old fashioned betrayal yarn, reminiscent of some of the early rko films, this one with a european feel; nice to look at despite a script that would have been better if cornell woolrich wrote it. while this isn't saying very much, it's probably the best performance of kari wuhrer's career. same goes for baldwin. it looks like the creative people may have cared. really sucky music and poor color timing, typical of films by this cheesy company, aren't consistent with creative directions, suggesting that producers (credits include milli vanilli) probably had the prevailing low budget hand in post-production. too bad.

a story of betrayal featuring baldwin and wuhrer scheming and trumping each other to steal his father's money. filmmakers seem to have made the most of a modest budget. considering limitations of script, star performances are excellent and overall look and pace of film is first rate. too bad the material wasn't better. as is, it's a nice diversion for 90 minutes, with a distinctive european look and feel.
