Layover - Dupla Traição

This was one of thoes suprise movies that when walking through your local movie store you walk right by. One day there was nothing to rent so I grabbed it. It was a shocker it was great, the movie just kept on changing and changing and in the end ended up being one of the best movies that i'v seen this year. Now I know that some cynical peaple just pass by and write it off as a bad movie just because it stars David Hasslehoff but hey this is easily david's best work. A must see, so watch it and give it a try.

Watching this movie is a study in frustration. Just when things are going well there is a cheap device to make a transition. Without giving away the ending, it's possible to see the final betrayal of trust several minutes in advance.

This somewhat typical action thriller starts off pretty inauspiciously, dominated by overtones about marital affairs, cheap foul language and banality, and Greg Henry's in-your-face bad guy. The second half serves to partially acquit it as the plot unfolds more and David Hasselhoff, the sucker protagonist, gradually becomes less of a sucker. Altho the pace of the second half is good, we are still waiting for something good, but that happens at the end with a surely unexpected twist. Not much depth but OK as a thriller to rent for an evening.

My wife and I enjoyed this very suspenseful movie. Not predictable and just a fine job by Greg Henry who is always the bad guy. Hasselhoff did a decent job and we enjoyed it thoroughly. Don't remember this movie even being in the theatres. It is well worth it and we enjoyed it thoroughly.

Considering his Age, the Hoff looks okay in this hi-tech thriller. Pity the same can't be said for co-star Yvonne Scio. Whilst the former lad's favourite had the poise and certainly injected a bit of much needed glamour, it can hardly be said that the heart was there to match the smile. Indeed, I have seen more elbow grease in a broken elbowed (both elbows) shrew. As for Gregg Henry (Jack Gillardo), I have seen more eroticism in a nervous shrew being watched by his shrew mother.

don't get me wrong, the basic premise was good. Erotic terrorist espionage thrillers are far too thin on the ground at the moment. Too thin by five, six. Eight!

While it's a shame to see any character, esp. (especially) one played by the Hoff, indulging in extramarital activities (dirty rudeness with sexwomen), I had to enjoy the tastefully shot scenes between Hoff and Scio. He even broke his glasses!

The performance of Lane offered little other than the pedestrian titillation of a boy in a man's world. Besides his slight, and less than occasional aversions to the benign, he showed as much individuality as a pack shrew in a field of pack shrews.

Basically, whilst the actors tried desperately to make the most of a bad lot, even the Hoff couldn't salvage this dead wreckage.
