Fleetingly, in the early 1990s, Annabella Sciorra had A-list potential, especially after her performance in Spike Lee's Jungle Fever. Sadly, she has slipped down the rankings in recent times and has even started trading on past glories. Just as she recognised that Rebecca De Mornay was the nanny from hell in The Hand That Rocks the Cradle, here she begins to suspect that her building contractor husband Scott Bakula (Quantum Leap) is a killer after he lies about a missed appointment. Surely a man who coaches his daughter's baseball team can't be a fugitive from justice? This tepid thriller rarely makes you care.

Dempsey Cain is an honored cop, a loving husband and father, and mentor to his handsome younger brother. Then a drug dealer's bullet paralyzes him for life and Dempsey's world is shattered. Suddenly, his wife and brother seem to care less about him than for each other, and a million-dollar insurance.
