Demi Moore and Bruce Willis were lovers back then and both were one of the hottest tickets in Hollywood in the eighties and early nineties, but time hasnt been kind to this movie...
The bad: I remember really digging this intricate storyline with lots of cunning schemes of murder and deceit, but rewatching it in 2023 made me loose interest quite quickly because of the sub par acting performances.
This is meant to be a serious crime drama, but there is a lack of true to life acting, which kinda deflates the whole thrill. Especially Bruce Willis is phoning his performance in, with too much mannerisms that work well in an action movie like Die Hard, but irritate when trying to make a true drama.
Not terrible, but certainly not memorable either.
