Plot: Bruce Willis plays a New York psychologist named Bill Capa who moves to L.A. after watching a depressed patient committing suicide right before his eyes. This incident scars him so much that he can no longer see any shade of red. He moves in with a colleague (Scott Bakula of "Quantum Leap" and "Enterprise") who has been receiving death threats. When this colleague is murdered brutally, Capa takes over his group. It isn't long until he finds somebody wants him dead. In the middle of all this, he becomes involved with a mysterious woman named Rose (Jane March).

Leonard Maltin Rating: BOMB

My Rating: 1 1/2

Review: This movie is one of the worst movies of Bruce Willis' career. It is boring, talky and the love scenes between Willis and March could have been a lot better. The only reason this movie avoids a 1 star rating to me is because it starts to really pick up the pace well into the end, which is about an hour and a half into into the film. This could differ because I viewed the extended version (139 minutes). The film ends fairly well and with a twist but that can't save it completely.

I thought the movie stunk too.
