Jack Andrews (Val Kilmer), a seedy private detective is hired by Fay Forrester (Joanne Whalley-Kilmer), to help her fake her own death in a clever scheme to escape from her mob pursuers, whom she double-crossed stealing money she had been sent to pick up, and are now intent on killing her. There then ensues a series of complicated plot-twists, double-crosses and surprises as Fay and Jack race each other to escape the mobsters, who have found them, and to get the money before the other does. ~ Linda Rasmussen, Rovi

Dennis Schwartz, Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Madsen's over-the-top nasty performance as a crazed killer gets your attention, in a film that feels less than filling just five minures after seeing it.
