Amor, mentiras y traición

Oh, please. Spent one boring afternoon with this one. The plot is just a bit more than a Tom_&_Jerry_run'n_chase comic, ah yes, with some mild nudity, which makes the flick 'not for kids'. So who's gonna see this? So impossible to engage oneself to the story. Keep away from this. With a bit more of 'hardcore' element and dirty adult scenes, this just might have made it as a porn flick.

Damn, this is the 2nd movie of madchen that she did Con wife or double crossing wife in a YEAR. another movie is " dream lover" . she was true pretty woman in 90s and still is.

anyhow, movie is good. with lots of suspense and thrill. and i really wished that there would be part 2 of this movie. but there is none. because the End was like " oh yeah , there will be next part of this movie".

Low budget twisty noir with a good cast. Eric Roberts is his usual charming, psycho self. John Litgow plays the sympathetic duped husband, while Madchen Amick plays both husbands against each other. All is not as it seems, and there are at least a bunch of double crosses and back stabbings along the way to an intricate bank robbery. Part inside job, part outside job, the amoral characters try to outsmart each other, as the story twirls toward the unexpected conclusion. "Love, Cheat,& Steal" isn't going to make anyone's top 100 list, but for what it is, it succeeds nicely. If you enjoy fast moving films with quirky dialog, give this one a try. - MERK

No pun intended - I have already wrote elsewhere that Madchen is german for girl. But in this case, I am talking more about the relationships she has in this movie. Can you really control or call her yours? Generally speaking that is something I would not want to do and say about anyone - even more so when it comes to her.

There are enough twists and turns - to keep you occupied. And Eric Roberts is on top form. We know he is a good actor, but he has been calling it in lately. Well at least it looked like it. Which makes sense, if you are making 20 movies a year - I am exaggerating here of course. Just saying - anyway let's focus on the positive. He really is great in this - as are the others.

If you like dark, film noir style revenge thrillers with a twist in the tale, then you will love this gem of a movie. Love, Cheat and Steal stars Madchen Amick, who adds a touch of class to any movie she appears in just oozes sex appeal and is always good to watch, and Eric Roberts, at his smouldering best here, both turn in fine performances. The supporting cast, including John Lithgow who is also always great to watch, Richard Edson, Donald Moffat, David Ackroyd, and Dan O'Herlihy all do well. So if you come across this movie on cable or at the video store give it a chance, you will see a lot worse films than this. Out of 5***** I give Love, Cheat and Steal 4**** This movie is also long over-due a DVD release.
