Warning: Spoilers
Not since "9 to 5" has Dabney Coleman been in such a jam. Dabney stars as Ethan Grover, a business man with a loyal secretary (Dorothée Berryman) and a disloyal wife (Linda Smith). She is having an affair with his business partner Alan Cross (Stewart Bick) while his closet gay CFO (Michael Rudder) is skimming funds. To add to the mix he has a step son with a gambling and drug problem (Brett Watson).

When Ethan is kidnapped by Bill (Dennis Boutsikaris) his wife balks at payment. The film has some some minor twists which are easier to figure out than a one star Sodoku.

The acting was bland and the writing very white bread.
