(1991) Shattered MYSTERY THRILLER

Adapted from the novel by Richard Neely, co-produced, co-written and directed by Wolfgang Peterson, which opens with a serious car crash accident with both parties surviving with one more seriously injured than the other as the wife fell out of the vehicle while the husband stayed in. And while he was recuperating in hospital, his face has to be reconstructed back together, and he is Dan played by Tom Berenger. And while still recuperating his wife, Judith played by Greta Scacchi makes attempts to recount his lost memory regarding the accident as he also got some amnesia /memory loss. And while at home, he accidentally stumbles onto some pictures of his wife having an illicit affair with some stranger oblivious who the person is, and meets former associates to piece a part of his past together, which includes Corbin Berstein as Jeb Scott, a co-partner of a multi million dollar project, along with his wife played by Johanne Whalley Kilmer and Bob Hoskins as the P. I. Gus. The erotic scenes are at times distracting which the movie lacks suspense, ending the film with a twist that can't be seen a mile away. And upon writing this review, this is my second viewing after many years.
