Synopsis
Anne Heche stars as Alex Lee, a loan officer who works as a high-class call girl by night, in this erotic thriller. When Alex is unwittingly caught up in a sting operation by the police, she is forced to agree to help catch a notorious underworld boss named Bruno (Walken) who had hired her one evening. Bruno, smitten by Alex's domination of him, becomes fixated, but sends out his bodyguard, Tony, to make sure she's not a cop. However, Alex also meets and begins a passionate relationship with Virginia (Chen), Bruno's wife. Soon, all four of them are embroiled in a complex relationship that threatens to destroy them all. Featuring a bizarre and bravura turn by Christopher Walken and excellent performances from Anne Heche and Joan Chen, director Donald Cammell (PERFORMANCE) has crafted a highly stylized modern noir that trumps just about every other film that fits that description.

4.0 out of 5 stars DIRECTOR'S CUT OF THE TERRIBLE MOVIE IS QUITE GOOD!!!, 2 Dec 2000

By	tomislav.strinic@st.tel.hr (Split,Croatia) - See all my reviews

I've bought this director's cut DVD version only because Chris Walken is one of my favorite actors and I want all his movies on DVD. But I was rather surprised that this cut actually makes sense and it's rather good psychological thriller. So enyone who saw that terrible producer's version (which drove director Cammell to suicide) watch this and be amazed.

5.0 out of 5 stars God Bless Frank Mazzola, 4 Sep 2002

By	"ronsilent" - See all my reviews

Frank Mazzola, the film's editor, is the man who brought this version of Cammel's vision to the screen. We will never know if this is what Donald really wanted but it is likely to be a much better guess than that made by the producers Nu Image with their straight to video softcore lesbian erotica version that got the late Mr Cammel so upset. This film is probably one of the best movies made during the nineties. Cammel has drawn astonishing, richly nuanced performances from the four main players in tightly woven set pieces. Most notable are Walken's money launderer Bruno, whose hysterical paranoia is both hilarious and disturbing, and Steven Bauer's extremely menacing undercover agent/ macho thug Tony, masquerading as Bruno's bodyguard. The film also includes Ryuichi Sakamoto's wonderfully atmospheric soundtrack that breathes gently over the film. The mise en scene is beautifully set up, colours radiate passionately throughout the set design and works brilliantly with the intense sexual cat and mouse play in the film, every emotion delicately registered from body to voice. The movie is a complex richly woven tapestry of sex and greed, power and violence; with a fathomless perspicacity that rewards multiple repeat viewings to point that, to be frank (no pun intended), if you don't like this film in any way you should probably stop watching movies altogether.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 20 Mar 2003

By A Customer

What can you say. This film is superb. The music by Sakamoto is wonderful. The editing and the performances are weird I know, Christopher Walken is always watchable. Buy this, you won't regret it. But not for those who liked Titanic.
