    Willis bares his wiener!

    Now, I know this is not even close to being Willis's best movie or role. I still thought this was a decent thriller. A good supporting cast with Brad Dourif(voice of Chucky, the best Horror icon ever!) & Lance Henriksen(who will star in just about anything these days) just to name a few.

    I can understand why Jane March hasnt done much, she'll be type-cast as woman who takes clothes off alot. & yeah, this is as close to a porn flick as you can get, when it comes to big named actors in studio movies.

    In my opinion, there are worse movies with Bruce Willis. This is worth seeing if you're in the mood for a adult-orientated suspense thriller...with quite alot of sex. & yes, ladies, You can see Bruce's winky in this too.

    Woohoo nudity!!! Jane march is beautiful

    first off, yes i am that shallow that i watch that movie whenever it's on tv just to see jane march naked (at least i can admit it). I love the plot and everything else too but as long as it has nudity and good sex scenes i'm most likely gonna like it. Why go rent a porn when you can near have it on hollywood?? i recommend this film to other fellow perverts and anyone who like psychological thrillers, really a great movie i say

    Is it really Willis' Willis?

    The director's cut, no pun intended, seems to be a much better film than the one that was shown commercially, but it still is a far cry from a satisfactory movie to watch. Richard Rush could have done better, but the psychological film we see, adds nothing to what has already been shown before.

    From the beginning we realize who the killer is, as well as the person with the multiple personality problem. It's too obvious! The film relies heavily on the sexual attraction between Bill Capa and Rose. Much has been speculated in this forum about whether we are actually seeing Willis' willis, or not. Since most male stars wouldn't be caught dead showing their genitals, for obvious reasons, what is seen for a second in the pool scene is that of a body double. On the other hand, we see Jane March showing it all, which is a welcome attraction.

    Only the final sequence has any impact. There are many things in the plot that don't add up and the viewer is ahead of the story at all times.

    Bruce Willis with a hairpiece looks good. Jane March has a better chance with the character she plays. Also Brad Dourif, Lance Henriksen have their moments. The one that doesn't come across well is Ruben Blades, an otherwise excellent actor trying to do a Columbo routine in this film.

    Entertaining

    An Agatha Christie-like whodunit remixed with Basic Instinct and a touch of Hitchcock, set in a Psychiatrist's practice in that most psychiatric city, LA with strong early 90s vibes. Jane March is very hot and shows it, and the sex scenes are gorgeous. The characters are otherwise a somewhat underdeveloped catalog of mental disorders, and although I am generally a fan of his, Bruce Willis is not a compelling shrink. The script is extremely implausible, and would have benefited from even a cursory industry consultation. That said, it was quite entertaining and loved the 90s atmosphere. Probably couldn't be made today (2023) so enjoy it while you can.

    Suspense, Mystery, Sex, and Violence, what more can you ask for?

    This is a favorite movie of my wife and I. It stands up to our toughest test, i.e., it stands up to repeated viewing and seems better each time we watch it. Some object to the sex and violence but `get a life' it's just a movie,(as Lt. Hector Martinez (Ruben Blades)) would say `you Daffodils!'

    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Although this film was a box-office failure, it did very well in the home video market. According to Billboard magazine, this film was one of the Top 20 most-rented films in 1995.
    • Goofs
      At one point during the first group session, Ritchie notices that Bill is wearing one green sock and one red, because Bill is blind to the color red. To Bill, only the red sock would be gray, and the other would still be green and he'd know they were mismatched.
    • Quotes

      Dr. Bill Capa: If I had known it was your birthday, I'd have come by tomorrow.

      Hector Martinez: Me too.

    • Crazy credits
      After the credits roll, Hector can be heard calling for help because he is still hanging on the wall.
    • Alternate versions
      The sex scene on the bed was more extended in the US and Australian video version following the head-to-waist shot depicting the sweating bodies of Willis and March with a scene showing Willis positioning himself behind March's rear. He later climaxed with a shriek, catching his breath as he leans towards the head of March who invites him to dress up for dinner.
