i feel extremely sad for some of the people who have be review this film . it be apparent that their standard be so high that they will never be able to enjoy a film just for enjoyment sake . or and perhaps and their enjoyment be derive from the act of pick film apart while look for any reason at all to dislike them . the long kiss goodnight be an action film and in every sense of the word . sure and there be hole in the plot big enough to drive a semi through and but none of them be enough to stop the flow of the film itself . i have never be a big geena davis fan and but i be impress with how she be able to create two very different character and samantha cain and charlie baltimore . in my opinion and it wasn not even necessary to have change her physical appearance to differentiate between the two . her acting be more than enough to do the trick . more than anything else and though and this film be craig bierko . in another hand and the character of timothy could have be just another interchangeable villain . his decision to play him with a more casual approach be just the right counterpoint to all of the action scene . it isn not often that you find an actor who can express himself so well with just his facial expression . point in case represent the scene in the freezer with charlie and her daughter . where most film would have clutter the moment of revelation with unnecessary dialogue and bierko eye tell the whole story . the basic plot . thin and to be truthful . a seemingly average housewife who suffer from amnesia slowly discovers that she have be an assassin . a her memory return and so do the people who want the assassin dead . be she really samantha and the cookie bake housewife and or charlie and the cold blood assassin . or maybe a little bit of both . for me and the long kiss goodnight be an enjoyable journey to find out .
