The Set Up

Personally, I found the movie be pretty good. It was refreshing to see Billy Zane in a non-psychopathic role for once. All of the actors gave it their best. There wasn't a weak link in the production. And the plot twists were about what you would expect from a caper/extortion story line. All caper movies these days have betrayals and twists, so if you watch enough of them you can mostly predict who is going to betray who. But this one at least tried to convince you that some things were different than they turned out to be. The soundtrack was the typical late 80s to mid 90s cheap synthesizer crapola but that's what you got from Showtime in those days to keep the budget in the grade B zone.

I always thought Mia Sara was one beautiful lady, and in this one you get to see a few brief flashes of her breasts and bod, so that added to the enjoyment for us 90s Noir fans.

All in all, if you aren't one of those complainers who are never satisfied, you might enjoy it.
