**SPOILER ALERT** Mind boggling police crime drama involving a police widow who falls in love with her late husbands murderer. The murdered cop in question Lee McLean, Jeffery Noudling, was killed by the drug dealers he was setting up in a sting as an undercover policeman. McLean who was addicted to drugs himself ripped off a cool one million dollars from Angel, Tim Daly, and his two partners Mia, Alice Carter, and Barclay, Joe Pantoliano, during a drug for cash switch then went terribly wrong.
One the run with Angel & Co. breathing down his neck McLean screwed himself up by trying to buy drugs, with Angel's money, from one of Angel's street drug dealers with him ending up dead after he was finally tracked down by Angel & Co. With McLean taking the secret of Angel's money to his grave it was now up to Angel to find the only person that McLean could have entrusted it with his grieving widow Carol, Lauren Holly.
The greasy and bearded looking Angel does a complete makeover looking like a 1980's Wall Street yuppie in trying to first romance Carol and then, with her guard down, find out where her dead husband stashed his hard earned, that cost the lives of some half dozen persons, drug money.
The made for TV movie "Dangerous Heart" seems to be about the effects of the Stockholm Syndrome-where a crime victim falls in love with his or her victimizer-in reverse! Angel who at first is in total control of the situation later lets his attraction, that eventually leads to love, to the totally clueless, in what Angel is really up too, Carol go straight to both his head and heart! This strange change in Angel's personality is duly noted by his two partners in crime Mia and Barclay. Knowing that the love sick, for Carol, Angel can't be trusted. It's then that both Mia and Barclay try to strong arm, or even murder, Carol in order to find out where her husband Lee McLean hid the drug money that he ripped off from them.
****SPOILERS**** Angel now having divided loyalties between both his lover Carol and his crime partners Mia and Barclay becomes a schizophrenic for the remainder of the movie. This really gives actor Tim Daly, playing Angel, a chance to show his acting talents in this very unusual Doctor Jekyll an Mister Hyde type role. The poor guy is so confused in whom he supposed to be, the good or bad the guy in the movie, that by the time the film ends he, as well as the audience, is not quite sure what side he's on!
We do in fact, after all the dust settles, finally find out just where the missing drug money ended up. What we also find out is that Angel's idiotic and murderous partners Mia and Berclay were in fact on to where the cash was hidden! But as you would expect from birdbrains like themselves they ended up killing, along with their freedom, the goose that laid the golden egg!
