WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesThe medical name of the illness that Heather Evans (Kim Basinger) was said to have in the film was "pathological intoxication" which is a true real-life medical disorder that can exist. Also known as "pathological alcohol intoxication", according to M.H. Hollender in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, the condition "appears as a diagnostic term in DSM-II and DSM-III, is defined in a psychiatric dictionary and is described in several textbooks".
- PatzerWhen Heather jumps in bed with Isaac her hair is curly, but afterward is perfectly straight.
- Zitate
Isaac Barr: [realising the truth about Heather's troubled childhood] It was 'YOU' your father RAPED! 'MORE' THAN ONCE! You couldn't take it could you? You just snapped!... and then you killed him! That night as he was passed out on the sofa soaked in booze... all you had to do was strike a match!
[sympathetically]
Isaac Barr: Maybe your father deserved to die! Maybe Jimmy deserved it too!
[Heather briefly breaks down in tears]

A twisted , glossy and complex thriller about a psychiatrist and two beautiful sisters playing the ultimate mind game . Resulting to be colorful crime thriller with suspense , emotion , action , twists and turns. Although heavily influenced by ¨Vertigo¨ , this movie never closes to attain the depth of Hitch cinematic masterpiece . Actors are acceptable but neither notable , nor extraordinary , but passable . Kim Basinger is the typical femme fatale who undergoes a dramatic personality change after drinking alcohol , Richard Gere acts in his particular style as the psychiatrist uses his professional pull to try and help her out of the consequences of her actions , while Uma Thurman is Gere's sexually neurotic patient , the latter had also appeared in Phil Joanou's former movie "State of Grace" . Likewise , ¨Final Analysis¨ (1992) was second and final of two cinema movie collaborations of actor Richard Gere and actress Kim Basinger , the first was ¨No Mercy¨ (1986) . Other fine secondary actors appearing are the following ones : Paul Guilfoyle of CSI , Keith David , Tony Genaro , George Murdock as judge , unbilled Eric Avari as narrator and uncredited Harris Yulin as state prosecutor , among others . But it's Eric Roberts who steals the show giving the most gripping acting as Basinger's sleazy gangster hubby.
¨Final analysis¨packs a thrilling and suspenseful musical score by George Fenton. As well as an evocative and brilliant cinematography by Jordan Cronenweth. This neo-noir and neo-Hitchcock film was professionally directed by Phil Joanou , it has success enough , though quickly faded from screens after being steamrolled by other big releases . Phil Joanou is an uneven director with film as ¨Gridiron gang¨, ¨Final analysis¨ and ¨Heaven's prisoners¨. For the latter Phil Joanou was hired by Alec Baldwin , in his role as executive producer who approached Phil Joanou to direct the film based on the suggestion of his then-wife, Kim Basinger , who'd had a good time working with Joanou on ¨Final Analysis¨ (1992). Joanou is a good professional with hits and flops and filmmaker of video-clips and films for U2 (¨Rattle and hum¨). As "Final Analysis" and "Heaven's Prisoners" proved to be critical and financial disappointments , Spielberg and Bono of U2 (separately) encouraged Joanou to write something personal and from the heart, resulting in the extensively autobiographical "Entropy". In addition , Spielberg gave Joanou the screenplay for ¨Three O'Clock High¨ (1987), then known as "After School" and subsequently directing the notable ¨State of Grace¨with a great cast as Sean Penn , Ed Harris , Gary Oldman , among others . Rating : 6.5/10. Acceptable and passable. The flick will appeal to Kim Basinger/Richard Gere/Uma Thurman fans.
