Leave your thoughts about Half Moon Street.
| MovieholeClint MorrisWeaver is as entrancing as she is sensational |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatContains a smashingly good performance by Sigourney Weaver. |
| Washington PostPaul AttanasioThe surprise is that Bob Swaim, who created the polished thriller "La Balance," has directed "Half Moon Street" with 10 thumbs. |
| User ReviewTTT CFemale professor supplements income as call girl, meets power player and gets embroiled with terrorists in England. Held my interest. Performances were good. |
| User ReviewJeff BA dirty old hooker falls in love with a dirty old Lord but Pretty Woman its certainly is not! A political thriller mixed with Sigourney Weavers nipples. Although the story drags its way through the narrative with no real conviction it does seem to wake up towards the end and makes you feel that there is actually a point and makes you question wither or not you enjoyed the film. I'm still unsure if its a good film but its certainly more entertaining and interesting than the mainstream drivel nowadays that easily costs 500-600 times more to make. Caine is, as always, sturdy as a rock and Sigourney pulls off the paradox off a high class educated intellectual and high class whore seamlessly. However it does all seem to be far too natural and casual a situation for the players and without any real scandal, shame or shock being expressed by anyone, therefore a little less believable. Nadim Sawalha is one to watch in this exotic, escort escapade. |
| User ReviewClassy JMore reality than meets the eye. Weaver's character is a bit off, and she spends a good deal of time in the altogether (since "augmented"), but Caine's "Lord Bulbeck" is more accurate than he knows. From the Paul Theroux novel, "Doctor Slaughter." |
| User ReviewJames ESigourney Weaver gets her kit off. Hooray! It should have been called Full Moon Street. |
| User ReviewAnthony VEven lots of nudity from Sigourney Weaver can't save this. |
| User ReviewLee MContains a smashingly good performance by Sigourney Weaver and not much else. |
| User ReviewSebastian PA pretty solid movie I feel could have been better, though I'm not sure how. Perhaps it's a little too "cold." Weaver and Caine work well together, but none of the other characters stand out. |
