This movie doesn't win a whole lot of points for having an original plot, but where its storyline is lacking the actors pick up the slack. The obvious stand outs are Paul Newman, James Garner and Susan Sarandon, but really there are no weak links. Gene Hackman and Stockard Channing perform wonderfully. Even "newcomers" (when compared to the rest of the cast) Reese Witherspoon and Liev Shreiber hand in commendable performances. Watch this one to see the masters in action, it's enjoyable simply watching them do their job.
