Good watch, would watch again, and can’t confidently recommend.This movie is definitely dated. Val Kilmer was still riding on “I was Batman” and a bunch of Hollywood actors had decided to have a go at being the next action (/spy) guy, and I think it was to try to knock Tom Cruise out of his position (like that worked).
This international spy of mysterious origin, even with an entire backstory as a prelude in the beginning of the movie, just so happens to be targeting “cold fusion”, so we get a sci-fi edge.
The person that happens to make the most plausible progress on cold fusion just happens to be a “stunningly beautiful woman”, Elisabeth Shue, with a heart condition to top everything off.
The actual movie experience was good, I promise, but thinking back on things, it all sounds so ridiculous. There is a lot of underlying romantic comedy at play here, and if I’m honest, I don’t think they movie knew what it wanted to be: mob movie, sci-fi discovery, rom com, action / spy, political intrigue, catholic revolution, or orphan identity.
Most of the fun stuff is spy versus Russian mob or cute rom com stuff, but you could probably get a better experience for either in different movies.
It’s a good time, but given all the options out there, you’re probably better off looking for a more modern spy movie.
By no means a great movie but for some reason have been drawn to this one, seeing it 3-4 times over the years. For the most part entertaining though the dialogue was pretty bad, however I like Val Kilmer in the lead and shares some nice scenes with the lovely Elisabeth Shue. **3.5/5**
