i be a collector of film star ms. weaver and so i buy this only because of her be in it . i find it really odd that her early career be fill with so many awful movie . she start with incredible promise in alien but then have a slew of bomb . these bomb include this movie and deal of the century and one woman or two and and half moon street . she also appear in the year of living dangerously and which be not a bomb and but her performance be less than notable . in the time between alien and it 1986 sequel and alien and the only movie she do that be worth anything be ghostbusters . before the release of alien and i be sure everyone think this woman be on her way out . luckily she wasn not . back to eyewitness though and the film be bore . it doesn not create any suspense . william hurt seem like a cardboard stand in and and the atmosphere be just to dry . sigourney be decent but nothing worth remembering . watch this movie if you must but do not go in with any expectation of a decent movie . watch good movie with these two star like accidental tourist and work girl .
