Long Kiss Goodnight

Long Kiss Goodnight

Geena Davis and her former husband, director Renny Harlin, attempted to pick up the pieces after the debacle of their box-office disaster, Cutthroat Island. What they came up with was this repulsive ode to American film noir, based on a script by Shane Black (Lethal Weapon) about an amnesiac schoolteacher (Davis) who searches for her true identity and finds she is actually a secret agent immersed in a deadly plot to topple the government. Mechanistic in its violence, obnoxious in its attitude, the film makes Davis, a once-promising actress, nothing more than a special effect. She tosses one to sadists in the audience by allowing her character to be beaten, punched unconscious, and tortured. The DVD release has optional full-screen and widescreen presentations, plus Dolby surround sound, theatrical trailer, cast information, optional French-language soundtrack and optional Spanish subtitles. --Tom Keogh

    The reviewer above (Tom Keogh) must have been hung over when he saw this movie. As proof: Any movie with this many great quotes has *got* to be good. And IMHO, this one is even better. OK, the evil government agency plot is thin and overdone (especially to someone who has worked at one of those agencies). But allowing for that, most stories about amnesia are interesting, as the characters slowly put together the pieces of their previous lives. "Long Kiss Goodnight" does it the best. One thing that makes it so good is the chemistry between Davis and Jackson, which is a precious riot.
