Body Shot

Well, this movie isn't a classic, that's for sure. The action sequences are quite cheesy and the fist fights sometimes even laughable. For a feature, that is not meant primarily for laughs, this could be sudden death. I'm not even talking about the obvious continuity goofs and lack of depth in the majority of the secondary characters here...

What are the factors then that keep the movie away from being bad trash? The typical and quite twisty plot is fully fermented with some fresh bites thrown in here and there. Robert Patrick - as the protagonist for once - does a fine job (and drops good one liners, too) and Michelle Johnson is stunning and bares a lot - in proper doses.

The special easy going but dirty mid/late 80's to early/mid 90's vibe, unarguably the heydey period of the Neo Noir / Erotic Thriller genres, is definitely there and seasoned with a few quite enjoyable original pieces of music. Overall, this flic was entertaining throughout, diverting, subtly filmed and I was never bored.

I really wanted to give this one a 7, but stick with a good 6+ for now (because there's no 6.5). You might very well like this flic, if you're into the genres mentioned above. Don't expect the quality of genre giants like "Basic Instinct" or "The Hot Spot" and you'll be fine. Give it a shot.

Perfect example of a small movie that tries to do too much. I knew right away with the noir voice overs things were not going to crystalize. Boy was I right, the script simply tacks on twist after twist, until the viewer has been hopelessly lost. Then there is the police who are inept throughout the entire film, as things spiral out of control. Robert Patrick or should I say "Robert Patsy" is set up for murder, takes beating after beating, has sex time after time with the femme fatale, and eludes the clueless cops without a gun as they shoot at him. Several decent actors are in this including Jonathan Banks, but to no avail, as the convoluted and overly complicated story leads the audience down a path to nowhere. - MERK

The poster obviously uses a shot of Robert Patrick from T2 so lazy.

I rented this because Robert Patrick stars in it. Otherwise I would never rent this kind of movie, but I was surprised about it. The movie had an OK story and decent actors. Robert Patrick made one of hid best perfomances so far as I've seen.

Of course this is not a great movie but for a 90 minutes entertainment it's great.

I gave it a 6

Film noir is one of my favorites and this thriller did not let me down. Robert Patrick from T3 was great as a guy who falls for the wrong woman in the wrong place.

I saw this in the video store and thought I would give it a shot, it has a very good luck, style, interesting shots, great soundtrack.

I wish Michelle Johnson should some lore skin. But I have to say it was very entertaining and worth a view.

The story line leads you around and you have no idea where your going to end up. Very entertaining film.

Check it out.
