PROPHETIC TITLE.......2005-05-04

Lushly filmed in the state of Utah, PARTNERS IN CRIME is an above-average whodunit. Rutger Hauer gets to play the hero in a rare change of pace, and he is ably supported by Paulina Porizkova as his ex-wife FBI agent. They are re-united when a local wealthy businessman is apparently kidnapped---the viewer knows however that the man has already been shot, stuffed in the trunk of a car, and hidden away in an old storage shed...which just happens to be on Hauer's property. Adding to the mix is the rapport between Hauer and Porizkova and Sarah Ashley as his precocious and all too wise 13 year old daughter. Porizkova is lovely and Hauer gives a deft performance. Not bad for a little known film.

Terrible DVD Captions........2003-08-23

I loved the film, and the DVD reproduction is excellent. But if you like, or depend on, captioning the DVD captions look like the work of a bad LA 'grass' party; or a high school project that received a failing grade! However, the VHS captions were the work of the NationalCaps Insti.and were excellent, as usual.

An opinion from Sacramento.

Still in Love with Paulina.......2003-08-06

(From back cover) Rutger Hauer stars as small-town detective Reardon, a once-disgraced policeman who is assigned to work on a high-profile kidnapping case reporting to a decorated FBI agent, Wallis (Paulina Porizkova), who as luck would have it, happens to be his ex-wife. The clues of the case lead nowhere and tensions mount, until a surprise break fingers a suspect - Reardon! As the victim's body is discovered, the hunter becomes the hunted and Reardon and Wallis must pull out all the stops to prove his innocence and find the real killer.
This is a better than average straight to video movie. The suspense is constant and the editing is above par. Of course Paulina looks better than ever and is starting to become quite an actress.

Partners in Action.......2005-03-22

Does this title deliver?
True, the title portrays "parteners". A smart kid, longing for a life of crime and easy gangster poses. An ageing (missing)father figure with a pony tail, set to take a fall by not so true blue police, having, himself quit the force after loseing his wife and child to a traffic accident several years prior.
The most "action" comes from the exploding suitcase in the basement. Ah, the basement. Every teen male's refuge to plot against the world of adults and take prisoners to inflict teen rage. But back to the expoding sutcase, bad guy police double cross and hide the "Blow" for real bad guys to search out. The resourceful kid "partener" rigs the suitcase with off the shelf, should I say in the basement exploding booby grenade and flours the bad guy with "Blow". This ensues in a three way shootout. The kid with a paint gun, he misses, Mr. Ponytail "partner" and the guy with "Blow" on his face, he gets blown away, ending with the remaining real bad guy getting shot three times by the bad guy police in front of all the good police. Not so smart.
Where's the money and the suvellance tapes from the opening shots? Not to worry, you will forget about all that detail stuff after a long police cars and motorcyle action chase, shot with a shakey hand held and the other low budget trick shots.
I did.
Thank you Film Board of Canada. You have produced just another example of why state sponsored industry/art,
ain't artist or at best can't foster a film making environment.
"Partners in Action" is a distraction.
