The shaking-mad scenes were great!, 13 September 2004
10/10
Author: betsynet from South, East

Phoebe Cates was perfect in her shaking-mad scenes. It was just like in "Top Gun", where the air-control tower-guy spilled coffee all over himself during a 'fly-by'.

One of the funny scenes showed three of Michael E. Knight's buddies knocking at his door in the beat of a classic hit. That was unique.

The movie had touching parts as well, like when he awakens in the hospital, sees 'Angel', (Emmanuelle Beart), and finally understands she had come originally to carry him 'over', so to speak. Alas! She couldn't carry out her mission, having fallen for him ...

The movie deserves a higher rating!
