Movie Review: One of the Worst Directed Films I've Ever Seen
Summary: 2 Stars
John Schlesinger is a respected director. What happened with this film? Was the screenplay so awful that he was unable to do anything to save the production? To be kind, I will describe the music score as banal and forgettable. Did Anthony Hopkins bet too much money in Las Vegas leaving him desperately in debt? There are no redeeming qualities to recommend this Cold War spy story. It is entirely senseless. We are expected to buy into the story of a woman supposedly trying to seduce a scientist to learn about the secret project he is working on. I never did figure out who was employing her. The film ended with me scratching my head in total bewilderment. One can literally find made for TV movies which offer far more entertainment value. Alas, I suffered through to the bitter end. Please do not do likewise. Ignore The Innocent. Life is too short. You have better things to do---like watching grass growing in the back of your house.

Summary of The Innocent
From legendary director John Schlesinger (MIDNIGHT COWBOY, MARATHON MAN, THE FALCON AND THE SNOWMAN). Oscar(R)-winner Anthony Hopkins (THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, Best Actor, 1991) stars with Isabella Rossellini (ROGER DODGER, EMPIRE) in this steamy thiller that combines passion with international intrigue! A dangerous espionage mission turns deadly when an aggressive CIA agent (Hopkins) learns that his young partner (Campbell Scott, ROGER DODGER) has become involved with a mysterious seductress (Rossellini). The suspense escalates as the agent races to save his doomed partner ... with a plan that will force the young man and his beautiful lover to choose between untold secrets ... and dark passions!Action & Adventure DVD Video
