The Trigger Effect ~ Not great, but...

This movie was not great, but well-acted by the 3 main principal actors:
MacLachlan is very good as a milquetoast husband, with Shue, excellent as his over-sexed sexpot of a wife.
Mulroney is good as a rather brooding friend,
The storyline seems rather weak, and the ending, well...they could have wrapped this up better.
Overall...an '8' for the acting, but a '5' for the whole movie itself.

I agree. Acting was great among all 3 actors. The movie was ok but the ending needed another 20 minutes at least and a different outcome.

When it ended, I was left saying "That's it?"
