One of the better of Eastwood's later directorial and acting efforts. A formulaic suspense film, but it holds one's interest well and the characters are well-drawn and played. Rene Russo plays one of the better of Eastwood's female foils, and the interplay between them is very good. Script and pacing are excellent. Malkovich is disturbingly creepy in the sort of role he does so well. A good popcorn-burner.
