Set in Iowa, Betrayed stars Debra Winger as an FBI agent who infiltrates a Klanlike white supremacist organization. Allegedly a woman of intelligence and perception, Winger throws caution and logic to the winds when she falls in love with local farmer Tom Berenger. Much to her surprise Berenger turns out to be the most rabid racist of all. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

This was the second time I watched this movie because the performances by Berenger, Winger, and Heard are just great!! The storyline is true to life unfortunately, but I love the suspense up until the very end. This is a must see..................

Berenger is POWERFUL in this movie ! Lesson learned here: Be sure to use eHarmony.com and screen your dates before getting involved !! (Yikes !)

This pre-911 movie is really a trip.... waaayyyy over the top, but this was all before Patriot Act and such.. nowadays, these guys would be in the slammer just for the weird emails they'd send each other, let alone their racist, psychopathic behavior.... Still, great performances all around, and a good plot...

This was one of those mythological films that I speak so highly of in other reviews. This was a gem hidden in the darkness. Berenger and Winger are amazing in their roles. Winger giving the best performance that I have ever seen her do, while Berenger takes a character riddled with evil and makes him human. etrayed ends like an open-ended question. It tells you that justice has been served, but not eliminated. It does not paint a pretty picture of our society. Be prepared if you see this for some embarrassing, yet disturbing images of ethnic hatred in this film. Some scenes that you will not believe ever happens in our country, but in the back of your mind you know certain evils do exist. But then also be prepared to see John Mahoney (of Say Anything... fame) do his best work ever. The war took his son, the bank took his land, why shouldn't he fight in this battle of supremacy? Dark and impressive ... WOW, I am lucky to have found this one.

But this was pretty weak and predictable. With below average actors, this B film would be a total flop. Now it is a near miss.
