Good and bad- sometimes looks can fool you, 13 October 1998
7/10
Author: anonymous

Adventure has never been Cage's strong suit- but playing characters caught between good and evil is his forte. Though he is frenetic most of the movie, subtle things- like the tremor of a hand when fighting off his impulses- make the movie worth seeing. Gary Sinese adds a lot to this movie- an implausible plot but some good acting
