movie good, not great because of lambert......


lambert is a terrible actor.the other actors are great, the script is clever and original. I like this movie and own it, but if I were the killer I would'nt be quaking when lambert is yelling threats at me on the phone. heis not convincing,and he just cannot pull it off. other wise very good film.

You're right. Lambert annoyed me the whole movie. First of all, I hate that intense stare thing he has going, which makes him look like a villain. And his
distracting accent didn't help either.

I seriously think the only movie he has every been any good in was the first Highlander. He's sucked in everything else I've ever seen him in.

He has myopia, same thing Rudolph Valentino had which explains the intense stare.

Actually I enjoy Christopher Lambert's movies. The biggest problem I have with the movie is that I only have the horrid Artisan DVD which looks like it was transferred from a VHS.

Gotta agree. I actually used to own that DVD and it was almost like if they took the original VHS and cropped to make it look like its original scope ratio.

I know Olive Films is releasing several titles from the Republic library onto DVD and Blu-Ray, and hopefully, if they get around to this one, then they'll give it a better quality release.

No his not. Lambert was the only reason I watched this movie. He has the charisma!
