Can't believe this is a Costa-Gavras film


It's genuinely stupid. I can't imagine why he agreed to do this movie; the script is terrible and filled with holes, it's just unbelievable and dumb from start to finish. Debra Winger keeps sleeping with Tom Berenger even after she learns what a scumbag he is? On what planet?

'Jew York City' what the hell? The dialogue is so over the top and awful and bad and...I can't. Watched this on MGM HD this morning and was stunned into silence at how awful it was. Nice to see Ted Levine playing...a crazy scumbag, but I guess you have to take what you can get.

It felt like a movie that was tinkered with (re: studio interference) behind the scenes and why things don't add up.
