Robert Miller is trying to sell his
company and he’s under a lot of pressure.
He wants this deal done and he wants it done now. His daughter is part of this family
business and his son also has a small role. Robert is not what he seems to be, he appears to be a professional businessman,
wonderful husband and father. Evidence begins coming out about fraudulent practices which raise questions about his business ethics. His girlfriend is applying a lot of pressure regarding their relationship.
This movie has problems, it tries to have
constant suspense and tension but there is just too much going on all the time. The subplots threaten to overshadow the
major plots. The talents of Gere,
Sarandon, Marling are wasted and cannot save this. The wardrobe for Sarandon must have
been located at the bottom of a barrel somewhere and it doesn’t do her any
favors. 2* (I didn’t like this
movie)
