The Plot (2/ 5).
The plot was simple......man visits brother, has an affair with his sister in law. Brother then cons sister-in-law for money with false promises. The movie paces well, and the outside stories are minimal
The Acting (0.5 / 5) The opening fight scene was phonier than any wrestling match I ever saw and unfortunately the acting never got any better. The dubbing means that every scene involving the two main male actors sounds like they're reading off of cue cards while the female lead on the other hand, comes across as competent. There a places in the film where the dialogue gives the impression of 'padding' to make the scenes last longer.
Overall (2.5) Some of the breaks in the movies gave the impression that this may have been a made for TV movie (something quickly quashed by the movie's content). The nudity factor here is medium, and some of it is quite gratuitous and does nothing for the plot. It's too hard to overlook the flaws in this one for me.
