"Literate, erotic, funny and touched by brilliance"

"A marital film noir. An uncanny suspense ripples through the movie."

"The most ferocious conjugal grudge match since "Who's Afraid of Virgina Woolf?"

"The kind of movie for, and about, grown-ups that no one makes anymore....the acting leaves one breathless."

"An elegantly staged sequence that recalls Max Ophuls has director Harvey Kahn's camera waltzing around pic's various personalities as they schmooze at an after work bar, in an intricate study of how flawed people, policies, self interests and secret arrangements drive big business."

"This slick, well-made thriller also mirrors the increasing cynicism with which more and more Americans view the ethics and motives of multinational corporations." - Kirk Honeycutt

Ruth epstein and director Harvey Kahn have fashioned a riveting thriller full of good scares and learned, muckraking insight into the global labyrinth of oil and politics."

I admire the film's anger, intelligence, and the generally persuasive level of the performances; Robert Loggia really seems like a CEO and Selma Blair really seems like an idealistic college graduate. Francoise Yip, for that matter, seems like the corporate friend who always seems to know ore than she should, and to be trying to tell you more that She can say."
