Details

A couple visits Mexico to scout a new location for their furniture manufacturing business and hit a cop with their car on the way back stateside. Realizing that if they report it they could land in a Mexican jail (guilty until proven innocent) they clean up the car and return home. A few days later an insistent man shows up wanting a job and insinuating that he saw something in Mexico that he would not want to report, and the couple must make a decision about how far they will allow themselves to be blackmailed.

Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece
Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
ccthemovieman-1 This is a "sleeper," an intense and involving thriller that grabs you from the start....but a film not people know about. Hey, only 10 people have even reviewed it here and the film is 13 years old. To be fair, I did think the finish was unrealistic which the typical killer-talks- instead-of shoots mentality, a familiar flaw in flimmaking. Too bad, because the rest of the movie is very good with Rutger Hauer a convincing evil blackmailer. Few actors play a psycho better than Hauer (see "The Hitcher" and "Nighthawks"). Rebecca DeMornay is a sexy woman in this film while her husband is the sleazy Ron Silver, but the latter's character is better than most the villains he usually portrays. This movie also has the unusual distinction of being a modern-day crime film with very little profanity.
Tonci Pivac I commend anyone that was involved with the making of this movie, I am a big fan of thriller movies and this one tops the lot, Also go to see one of my favourit actors (Rutger Hauer) play one of his nastiest roles ever, And there has been alot of those roles for him. I dident even blink an eye while watching this movie. Well done to all involved in this film.10 out of 10.
craiglappe Blind side is a copy off of 1992's unlawful entry. But is still worth viewing. Rutger Hauer gives his best performance since the Hitcher. It's a story about a guy who stalks a couple who just can't get rid of the stranger. Same story as the movie unlawful entry. Except the stranger in that movie was a cop. Blind side is worth viewing.
borg9of9235 Another movie I watched in my Mariska Hargitay run. I highly regretted watching this. It was a waste of the $2.13 it cost to rent it. Direction was terrible. The camera angles tried to be dramatic and add to the tension, but it failed miserably and came across as the work of a child. One scene is as badly shot as the worst amatuer porn flick. Acting is acceptable, but can't overcome the hideous directing, writing, and fashion. The ending scene is laughable and cliche. After the first half hour I ended up fast forwarding through a good portion of the movie, only watching the scenes that helped to move the(pathetic) plot forward or that featured something eye-catching. Let's not even get into the plot holes and hanging threads.Stay away from this. Zombie flicks are more enjoyable.
