She's a lawyer. He's a cop. Some former KGB-types with a wide variety of slippery accents and enough sophisticated technological surveillance gadgets to make one wonder how the Soviet Union could have possibly failed, want her dead. The cop (William Baldwin) is the only man who can save her. It helps that the high-powered attorney is played by Cindy Crawford, who gives new meaning to the phrase "habeas corpus." So the plot doesn't make any sense: First they try to kill her, no questions asked. Then they capture her and spill their guts about all the details of their nefarious plan. But logic is not what Fair Game is about. It's about explosions, car crashes, and more explosions. The only pauses in the action are for showers (one for Baldwin, two for Crawford) and a change of clothing (Crawford slips out of a tight T-shirt into an even tighter tank top). The best feature of the DVD is the addition of a Gallic track. With very little actual sex in the movie, having the main characters conversing in French definitely adds some sauciness to the dialogue scenes. --Richard Natale

The movie itself is what I expected. What I didn't expect was that the movie is only available in full screen. There is no widescreen for this movie. I did not know this going into the purchase.

i have been known to like what some people consider to be bad movies, and this movie is not exactly casablanca, but i have to say i watch it alot, and i like it. I personally think the scene where he calls the store is hysterical. I would tell other people to watch it, but it is not for all.
Better than I expected after reading the reviews August 6, 2006

Lots of explosions, a dodgy plot, plenty of electronic gadgets which required a certain amount of blind faith to believe in and a bit of sex (lovely!!!) albeit at an inappropriate moment and interrupted before consumation by the KGB (I hate them). The acting was passable except for that of the KGB which was pretty pathetic but all in all, it wasn't as bad as it was painted. I shall watch it again one day now I have bought it.
 AWFUL!!!! August 8, 2005

I was extremely bored one day and happened to find this DVD lying around. From the opening scene, (was that a bullet, piece of glass, firecracker? she should have just been mugged or something. some better excuse to get her to the police station) I knew I was going to have to endure some low-class acting and that was exactly what it turned out to be. Crawford could have been more believable as a porn star than as a lawyer in the movie. She overacted...or is underacted...and leaves me wondering how on earth this movie went through all the stages that a movie has to go through before it is finally released. The original plot was ok except a bit weak. the fact that the lawyer wanted a boat to go to a client did not warrant the massive manhunt that followed leading to the death of several cops, only to capture her, bore the audience with their explanations and keep her alive long enough for her cop-friend to rescue her.
The sex scene was so ill timed, or am I naive to think that just a minute after surviving shoot-outs, major car crashes and explosions, jumping onto a moving train, jumping off a car that explodes seconds after, someone can immediately be that turned on and have sex?? Baldwin was not too bad except I expected more remorse and grief from a man who had just lost a couple of workmates, a best friend and a cousin in a matter of hours but still managed to crack jokes and be extremely horny.
The star of the movie was Selma Hayek whom we get to see in 2 scenes. Only problem is we don't know why the hell she is so upset with her boyyfriend??????????????
Don't waste your time and money on this one folks! PLEASE!!!!

Critics slam this because they try to compare it to "Witness", "The Client" or some other movie with better actors and a more plausible storyline. Personally I think Baldwin and Crawford have a chemistry and it and the screenplay works. Just go into it without any preconceptions and you will probably find it a decent action movie. Fair acting, great special effects, and good music make this worth checking out.
When a civil lawyer played by Crawford demands her client get a ship in international waters, she puts herself on the hitlist of a group of Ex-KGB assassins. Using high tech equipment they track her every move and attempt to kill her. In steps a cop played by Baldwin to try and help her survive long enough to get into witness protection. He almost single handedly takes out all the Russian terrorists. Good picture and sound quality but no extras. I picked it up for a little more than the cost of a rental.
