Je t'observe...

Remember Madeline Zima from HAND THAT ROCKS THE CRADLE and THE NANNY as a wonderful child actress. She was cute then and worked well in her roles. In some case child actors grow into adult roles quite well and some don't. In this case Zima didn't. She seems stiff and without energy in her acting. It is also hard to accept that the incredible Brian Ames could ever want to be with her at all. This handsome actor goes crazy over her. She starts it all by being a peeping Tom watching his nightly trysts from her window. Then he goes after her, which is hard to believe as she in not a looker for his kind of looks. So she snoops into his life, including breaking into his apartment and at one time when he is in her apartment she accuses him of breaking in. Duh. It just doesn't work in my book. Zima is a nice looking girl but not adult enough to play this kind of a role. And Ames is certainly adult and sexy enough for any role in my book. Too bad.

I've never seen Brian Ames before and he is so gorgeous! Great movie too. Good story line.

It was just so bad.. plus so much of what the movie tells us in the first five minutes tells us what's gonna happen later.

Typical female stereotype on LMN- woman falls for (and falls in bed with) a guy she doesn't know and doesn't know anything about. The plot is so weak and they couldn't fill the time slot with plot, so they threw in some softcore porn to try to keep our attention. Doesn't work- at least not for me.

Best line in the movie is when she said "I'll be writing constantly until the end of the month," while she was in bed with him and continued to go back.

Nobody ever works in these movies anyway, oh well.

They could have cast the lead a whole lot better. She is NOT a good actor. A whole lot of possibilities flood my mind- at the top would be Lorynn York. This is just a sorry excuse for a 'thriller.' Two stars is a stretch.

Not worth watching if you're looking for an actual thriller. However, if you're looking for a melodramatic film to inspire chuckles, this is it.
