    This movie lacked any redeeming value. Acting was awful and the story line was practically nonexistent. Gratuitous sex and filthy language were used to cover the lack of a plot. I was also distracted by Melanie Griffith's freakish lip job. I couldn't look at her whole face because I became fixated on her nonmoving collagen lips.

    Slow and confusing in some areas...Melanie Griffith is a horrible actress....the storyline is pretty good...I guess worth the rental but beware, that the ending will just make you question what the whole point of the movie was.
