freeman give his most powerful performance here . i have see almost all of morgan film but i think this be his most outstanding performance . fast black be one juicy character and morgan brings life into it . christopher reeve and god bless his sole and be a pretty bad actor . i only see him in his superman role and which i wasn not much a fan of . but here his character get a lot of screen time and reeve just can not live up to it . he make the movie boring . kathy baker excels in her role . mimi rogers do her part well . the film have an amazing storyline here and but screenplay be 50/50 . if morgan have more scene the movie would have be way well . yes there be some really strong scene and but all of them involve freeman . the direction wasn not great and if this movie be handle by a good director it would of be memorable . many people probably do not even know about this movie and that a shame because freeman performance must be watch . freeman outburst scene where he put a bottle up to reeve face and give him a 20 second stare be wow . and not to forget the scissor scene where he threaten to poke kathy eye out . marvellous . what disappoint me the most and regardless of the many flaw in direction and be that freeman do not have a last scene in the climax . in a movie where morgan keep everyone in their seat and the director or screenwriter do not hook him up with a proper climax scene . i be expect something huge and but instead the end be the same old same old . overall and the movie be ok and but freeman performance be great .
