I was oddly surprised by this Lifetime movie as I was fixed on Georgia Craig as Stacy. What a whack-o / bravura performance by this actress!! Her range of emotions were just amazing to watch as she switched over from confident assistant, to terrified assistant, to an emotional crying nut job. She chewed up the scenery including her co-stars! The movie stars Sean Young, but it is Georgia that steals the show. There are only a few B movies that are so bad that they are so good,,,,this is one! Nice subplots and is well paced until the end when everything is revealed too quickly. I was completely caught off guard by the final scenes as one surprise becomes another surprise....pulled off nicely!

I've come to the conclusion that none of these 'Canadian made in British Columbia tax incentive films' will ever be better than about a 2 or 3 on a scale of 10 on a world-class scale so with that said, I give this a 7 out of 10 on a Canadian scale, or about a 1.25 out of 10 on a world scale.As for the acting, Georgia Craig plays a very good psycho and really reminded me of a few crazy obsessive ex girlfriends I've had over the years - very disturbing. One girl friend I had like that, I got so fed up with her antics that one day I literally pulled up to the curb, told her to get out of the car and then I drove away never to speak with her again. There's nothing except maybe a screaming baby that's quite as annoying as a clingy, blubbering chick in the midst of a hissy fit. Well anyway, that's what Georgia Craig looks like, a crying blubbering psycho.Sean Young was really good in Blade Runner. All the actors in Blade Runner should have quit right after it was made because none of them have ever been in as good a film since.The end of this film is good so if you can make it through the first 99%, you'll enjoy the last 1%. You could also just record the last 3 minutes and skip the rest of the film.My favorite part though is when the crazy chick kills a guy who specializes in selling ONLY stolen car mirrors, not any other car parts, just the side mirrors which if you think about it makes absolutely no sense at all since it would be a hell of a lot of work to remove a cars side mirrors -- you'd have to first break into the car without setting off the alarm, then remove the inside door panels, using a ratchet, you'd have to reach inside the door and undo the nuts holding the mirror on etc., so bottom line, you're talking a good 15 minutes minimum per mirror so it's not a good way to make a living to say the least. But the worst part is, not only is it a bad way to pay for your drug habit, but in the end you could get beaten to death in a parking lot by some crazy chick with a tire iron.

It states in the ad that it's a film where an attractive woman vies against a corporation and takes over. First of all, she's not that attractive. Believe me. Georgia Craig plays the role and she's far from pretty. In fact there's a scene where she puts the make on this old geezer. It couldn't have been a worse choice. To think he must have been that desperate to go after the likes of her. With stringy hair and a nose that points towards mecca, she's quite homely. Let's forget her and move on to the dullest performance in the film. That of Sean Young. Blank expressions and monotone voice make her the most uninteresting character in the movie. Why the husband would want to stay with her and why the bimbo would want to kill for her is beyond me. Ari Cohen, the husband, is the victim here. Both as the actor and the character.Then we have two idiot detectives that have to be a joke. Mutt and Jeff seem to bungle everything. That they represent the law is a laugh and embarrassing to the viewer.So, bad script, bad casting, bad acting make this a ridiculous movie not even for desperate audiences that have nothing else to do. Better to read a book, folks.

**SPOILERS**Always knowing how to get what she wants advertising executive Jennifer Kamplan, Sean Young, hires the very determined and no holds bar, when it comes to getting a multi-million dollar account, Stacy Sherman, Georgia Craig, as her exclusive both right hand man, or woman, and dirty trickster.Cold blooded and totally immoral when it comes to getting on top and stying there Stacy in no time at all murders Jennifer's rivals in the advertising business. Tracy first has Jennifer's business competitor Martin Keller, Paul Christie, electrocuted in his swimming pool. Stacy then sets her sights on top advertising honcho Terrence Leary, Bill Dow, who's in the process of taking over Jennifer's company HR&Y advertising in a hostile bid. Getting him smashed on martini's Stacy has Leary get into a very compromising position with her that she secretly has video taped. With his both reputation and marriage on the line Terrance can do nothing but give into Stacy's demands which is drop all plans of taking over Jennifer's advertising firm.Loving her work as well as her boss Stacy goes so far as brutally murdering this sleazy car thief Larry Mailshak, Druc Laurie,for just stealing Jennifer's expensive Porsche side-view mirrors. Leaving the scene of the crime, an outdoor flea-market, Stacy leaves her unique and expensive silver Tiffany mechanical pencil there by mistake. This in itself would really mean nothing to the police investing the murder but that fact that Stacy really went out of her way to have Jennifer's west-coast boss, of HR&Y, the load mouth and abrasive Roger Shapiro, Brent Stait, killed did. Shapiro's murder in a staged, by Stacy, car smash-up connected the second half of the Tiffany pen & pencil set to Stacy when the cops, who ware on the scene of the Mailshak's killing, interviewed her. Stacy unknowingly was writing on a pad with the pen that was noticed by sharp eyed police sergeant Carlos Moresco, Jason Schombing.What turned out to be the biggest obstacle in Stacy's path to both money and her boss's Jennifer Kamplan's heart was Jennifer's estranged husband the very hunky handsome and talented, as a top advertising photographer, Partick, Ari Cohen. Stacy had developed a very strong, almost lesbian, attraction to Jennifer and felt that Patrick was a threat to it. What made things even worse for the by now obsessed, in wanting Jennifer all to herself, Stacy is that Jennifer, knowing just what a prize Patrick was, didn't want to let go of that handsome hunk of a man of her's. Even if it meant quiting her top job at the HY&R advertising firm!**SPOILER ALERT**You already knew where the movie was going since it started with what would be it's sudden and surprising ending which in fact gave the ending away in the first two minutes of the film! Stacy was crafty and cunning but she couldn't hold a candle, or handgun, to her boss an old hand at this kind of stuff Jennifer Kamplan. The biggest surprise in the film, which was kept from the audience until the very last moment, was that Stacy in her haste to please her boss messed up big time. This had the one person who could finger Jennifer, in the series of crimes that she orchestrated, to he police being able to live long enough to do it!
