Surveillance

I found it in DVD rental, and took it in lack of better promises. It started interesting, and was good until some 60%. But ending is very disappointing. Nothing is explained, dead bodies just appear everywhere... It looks that producer(s) ran out of money (or ideas?). There were some minor clues to explain Assante's characters behavior, but all it was not enough for build story (and of course character). Even romantic relation between rookie and blondie was interrupted - just like that :(

With better ending it could be solid thriller.

Acting was good for this level of production. Watch it only if appears on TV.

This is an amazing film... i would pay to own this movie!! It is a thriller that will have you glued to your chair until the last minute! I believe that the acting by Armand Assante was fabulous. It was his best performance since "The Mambo Kings." Nick Cornish, a new inspiring actor did an excellent job.

The filmography is unbelievable. The director, Mr. Fritz Kiersh is a professional. I LOVE THIS MOVIE! I hope that everyone who reads this comment will see Surviellance... you'll regret not seeing it! I know that all of you will enjoy it! I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE THIS MOVIE I LOVE THIS MOVIE!

I had been dying to see this movie, mainly because I'm a huge fan Of Nick Cornish and I wasn't disappointed with his role at all. My gripe was with Armand Assante. I could barely understand a word he said! But overall, I think the movie lacked several things. It could have been great. It needed more scare factor, a little more romance. I little more of the nasty stuff. Just a little more of everything, I guess. Still, it was watchable. The acting was good, other than Assante's dialogue. His fellow Americans probably didn't find it an issue, but being a Brit, found it really hard going. Managed to get this movie on DVD (all be it Region 1. Technology, a wonderful thing ;))

Enjoyed this film 100%. Not only was it dramatic, from blackmail, to murder. (Armand Assante) played a really great bad guy,(Harley). The setting of the movie took place during the holiday season, which is a beautiful time to fall in love. And that set the stage for the wonderful romance that developed between Dennis (Nick Cornish), and Claire (Laurie Fortier). Amist all the drama unfolding at this department store, being terrorized by this creepy loss prevention supervisor that would stop at nothing, and their very lives at stake, they turned to each other and worked as a team. Hope to see these actors a lot more in the near future. Didn't know of this movie until I just happened to catch it on a cable TV channel, but turned out to be a very nice find. Not to be confused with several other movies with the same name, the plot and setting was very strong in this film. and the ending didn't disappoint. Wonderful acting and script writing. Kudos to writer (David Golden), and director (Fritz Kiersch). This movie hit its mark..

Better than you might expect from a low budget thriller. The cast, Armand Assante, Nick Cornish, and Laurie Foster, give good performances. Initially the script is fine, as the story unfolds of a mall security guard who tries to control everyone who works there. His strong arming and blackmail puts a certain edge on the film that is always present. If the script had not been altered to inject a hardly developed horror element, the film would have benefited. There simply is too much left unexplained relating to the mannequins and the missing persons. Finally, the let's leave room for a sequel ending, seems totally out of place. "Surveillance" is very watchable, but could have been better. - MERK
