Synopsis
An ex-CIA agent, now involved in industrial espionage, his last job being for a cosmetics firm, is recalled by the agency to escort and swap a former Soviet spy, now languishing in prison, along with $2 million in South American drug money. When the arrangement goes awry and the two realise that the CIA and KGB both want them dead, they flee with the help of a woman in Paris and outsmart their former employers.

2.0 out of 5 stars Business as usual, 12 Jan 2008
By Trevor Willsmer (London, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)      
Here's a game for really long car journeys - see how many alternative titles you can remember for this one. At one time or another known as Dinosaurs, Patriots, False Passports and Russian Roulette - and there are a lot more where they came from - with Elliott Gould and Marsha Mason announced in supporting roles (neither is anywhere to be seen in the finished film), Company Business appears to have been re-edited, reshot and retitled more times than anything this side of Heaven's Gate before finally getting a brief US release to disastrous business.

The scars and indecision don't show too badly; this looks like it was always this naff. Hackman and Baryshnikov are amiable in underwritten roles as the obsolete spys set up by their respective employees when a spy swap goes wrong, but Nicholas Meyer is better at directing architecture than people (the first half-hour features some of Ken Adams best production design of the 90s) and just can't think of an ending. Watchable in a TV-movie sort of way, but nothing more.
