Movie Reviews

eFilmCritic.com - 4/10 by Rob GonsalvesDemme puts nothing of himself into these paranoid shenanigans -- the movie is all too transparently his attempt to do something bankable.
Spectrum Culture - 4/10 by Pat PaduaSuspense tropes that Demme would tweak to much greater effect in Silence of the Lambs just don't come off here, and the leads never generate romantic sparks.
User Review - 8/10 by monsieur rImpressive diabolical thriller. Roy Scheider is as incredible an actor as there has ever been in our brief existance. Finding a girl in his apartment after he has been gone a while, they wrestle for the apartment. This is all Scheider. He IS this movie. From one shocking scene to another, this man who is under constant threat of being killed (or he thinks so), seeks just the comfort he needs from his young girl roomate. He lost his wife, now he is losing his mind. Just incredible acting. An incredible film. Christopher Walken is so good too. A real plus in his short appearance. Roy Scheider stars as a government agent losing his grip on sanity when his wife is killed and he becomes the assassins' next target in this frightening story that co-stars Mandy Patinkin and Christopher Walken. But is he really losing his sanity? Cast Roy Scheider Mandy Patinkin Christopher Walken John Glover Janet Margolin Sam Levene Charles Napier Crew Director: Jonathan Demme Costume Designer: Jane Greenwood Cinematographer: Tak Fujimoto Editor: Barry Malkin Screenplay: David Shaber Associate Producer: John Nicolella Production Designer: Charles Rosen Composer: Miklos Rozsa Producer: Michael Taylor Producer: Dan Wigutow
User Review - 8/10 by James HDemme on tehnyt niin paljon hyvia leffoja ennen Uhrilampaitakin etta hui. Roy Scheider on yksi lempi näyttelijoita ja tassa elokuvassa kerrassaan mahtava. Aikuisena psykologisena jannarina ansaitsee useampia katsomiskertoja ja tulkintoja. Jo juliste kuuluu osaksi juonta ja elokuva alkaa katsojan paassa ennen ensimmaista kuvaa hitaasti nostattaa kysymyksia. Muukin nayttelija kaarti on oivallista ja ohjaus manipuloi taitavasti kuten Hitchkock tyyliin kuuluu.
User Review - 8/10 by Stephen MThis is a splendid little Hitchcockian thriller from Jonathan Demme. Roy Scheider plays Harry Hannan, a government agent recovering from a nervous breakdown after losing his wife in a botched attempt on his life. Fearful of further assassination attempts after being labelled a dangerous liability by his boss, Harry's nerves are shredded even further when he receives a mysterious death threat in Biblical Hebrew. Although certain characters (guilt-ridden, delicate hero - Vertigo), situations (shower scene - Psycho) and settings (bell tower - Vertigo again) are unmistakably Hitchcockian - and the movie even finds time to reference first generation Hitchcock clones like Henry Hathaway's Niagara - Demme's film is always a cut above mere pastiche because he makes little or no attempt to imitate the master's style. In place of Hitch's elegant backdrops and rigidly storyboarded perfectionism, Demme substitutes gritty locations, handheld camerawork and spontaneity. Scheider is superb as the haunted hero and Miklos Rozsa's score is simply beautiful.
User Review - 8/10 by David SThis is brilliant. Demme's no dummy - the direction is great, very Hitchcockian (it actually plays like a tribute movie). Solid performance from Scheider, as always.
User Review - 6/10 by Jenna IVery early Jonathan Demme. Not a bad movie, but the last 1/3 doesn't hold the suspense and paranoia of the first 2/3. Really kind of peters out by the end, but does manage to regain some of the emotion at the very end. The score is excellent and really adds to the mood in a lot of places. Scheider and Margolin are great, and there are a lot of interesting cameos and bit parts in this one from actors who went on to have great careers...
User Review - 6/10 by Jonathan RRoy Scheider is great, as always, but this turns into a melodramatic 70's stinker in the last third.
