Kate McQuean (Crawford) is a lawyer who -- in the course of a divorce proceeding -- attempts to seize a 157-foot freighter docked off the Florida coast in lieu of unpaid alimony. It turns out that the freighter is the current base of operations of Kazak (Steven Berkoff), a former KGB agent who has become an international money laundering expert and leader of a crack terrorist team. As one might imagine, Kazak is not especially happy about possible eviction, and soon Kate has a hefty price on her head. Kate, however, doesn't know the nature of Kazak's business and isn't sure why someone is trying to kill her. Loose cannon police detective Max Kilpatric (William Baldwin) is assigned to protect Kate, and romance begins to bloom as they dodge a remarkable number of bullets and explosions. Fair Game was originally slated to star Sylvester Stallone alongside Crawford (the film's location was moved to Florida at his request); when he dropped out, Crawford found herself co-starring with Baldwin, another model-turned-thespian. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
An enjoyable movie.
-
Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail
One could scavenge the thesaurus to find synonyms for 'awkward' to describe Crawford's performance.
-
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
Crawford packs a phallic pistol and traipses through the rain in a transparent slip. Share the fantasy, babe.
-
Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times
The lamest model-turned-actress movie since Lauren Hutton co-starred with Evel Knievel in the misbegotten Viva Knievel!
-
James Berardinelli, ReelViews
Howlingly bad -- so awful, in fact, that it can actually be enjoyed on a certain level.
