Sizemore Steals It December 14, 2005
J Smith (New York USA)
I think Tom Sizemore holds the pinnacle of this flick. I have seen him in other films, but he is my new favourite actor because of his performance in this movie. He embodies this man Eddie. I've seen better from Dylan McDermott, and I probably shouldn't even comment on Sharon Stone's 'acting' (you know, that character she does for e v e r y - s i n g l e - o n e of her roles . . . herself, yawn). Anyway, I was very drawn into the movie to watch more of Sizemore's acting.
 Very entertaining... January 8, 2005
Sandra Says (NJ)
Filled with suspense, this movie kept me entertained until the very end. Great story, not for those who want romance or car chases.

What a shame to have two excellent performances wasted on a script that doesn't go anywhere. Dylan McDermott gives an excellent performance as a writer who isn't going anywhere. Fate decrees he's to "live" in a house he's supposed to be selling, a house which was the scene of a brutal mass murder. Enter Tom Sizemore, equally impressive, as a strange, neurotic young man who claims to be the manager of a local grocery store. McDermott and Sizemore strike up a tenuous relationship, and as the movie unfolds, we're expecting some startling revelations...which never come to fruition. Is Sizemore the killer? Or is he just a lonely man looking for companionship? Add an icily cold performance by a young Sharon Stone as McDermott's bitchy editor and you have the ingredients for a tidy little thriller. But no souffle here folks. All the ingredients don't come together and you're left wondering just what you've spent 90 minutes with.
Recommended only for the two male performances.
Would have benifited from more Sharon Stone January 2, 2000

All in all the movie was an interesting thriller, but they didn't pursue the relationship between Dylan McDermitt's character and Sharon Stone's character at all- and that was all that really interested me. The end was a little forced I thought, but it was definately creepy/
