3/10
Absolute rubbish

When I first saw this movie I practically hated it. It was little more than a try-hard action movie created to flaunt Cindy Crawford's apparently attractive body. Personally I think supermodels are way overrated, and though that may be attractive, they are far from being the goddesses that people treat them as. This movie, is simply little more than a vain attempt to introduce Crawford to the acting scene, and fortunately she did not stay. One may say that she is more than just a pretty face, but when it comes to acting, one should look in another area.

Basically Crawford is a civil litigator who gets mixed up in a KGB plot to steal a lot of money, simply because she is using the divorce court to claim a ship that happens to be the KGB's base. She runs into a cop, played by Stephen Baldrin and inevitably they have sex and beat up the bad guys. The sex scene here is quite trashy, and in fact they get caught with their pants down.

Personally this movie is little more than mindless pap. While it is okay to watch, it really goes little beyond that. The bad guys are interesting and use some nasty technology, but this is all lost on the fact that for all their skill and ability, a lawyer and a cop manage to beat them, and they don't even seem to break a sweat. This movie makes the KBG look like a bunch of bumbling idiots that couldn't steal a poster from the wall - and it isn't even a comedy.

Personally, if you are bored, then watch it, but if you have better things to do, then it is best that you do them.
