Goldie like nothing before

Lynn Pye from Durham, 6th August, 2004

This is definitely a shift in direction for Goldie Hawn. No trace of the blonde simpleton. The story starts when Adrienne (Hawn) accidently meets Jack Saunders (John Heard). Zip forward couple of years and its their daughter birthday party.

Jack is a curator at a museum where one of his colleagues is found by Adrienne hanging in his office. When an investigation around his death is mounted it comes to light that artifacts had been forged.

Adrienne starts to suspect Jack is involved and begins asking questions. Jack then turns up dead in a car crash.

As Adrienne starts sorting through his things she finds pieces of a life he lead that she had no idea about, and starts to investigate her husbands life.

What she finds is a bit of a shock. Jack was not Jack at all and he lead various separate lives. If also turns out Jack is not dead and want some jewellery he had left at the apartment.

The plot is a bit contrived but there are parts that make you jump. Then just when you think you have it sussed another twist is thrown in.

Although not a great film it is very enjoyable. Double Jeopardy with Tommy Lee Jones is better, but this is well worth a watch.

A DIFFERENT GOLDIE

JAMES MC KEE from N. IRELAND, 16th January, 2006

although i prefer goldie hawn in comedy this is change of direction. although the story is good i found some of the events hard to swallow...but if you forget about the not so true to real life events it is nevertheless a very enjoyable film....too predictable for me

ANOTHER BRILLIANT GOLDIE HAWN FILM

Guy and Karen Lewis from Telford, Shropshire, 5th May, 2005

She plays a fine performance in this and not her usual silly bimbo types.

Different Step For Goldie Hawn

Fan from , 1st July, 2010

I Love Goldie Hawn she an amazing actress for the past three/four genertions & she can kick ass in this thriller as she is mostly in comedy so this was a different step for her, but sadly the movie failed when at the box office & alot of people haven't heard of this Movie which is a shame because it shows Goldie Hawn & John Heard talents in this excellent Drama/Thriller & I think it the best 1991/1992 Drama & Thriller Movie of the early 90's and people need to give it a chances and is for the Goldie Hawn fans.
