No Angel is a light entertaining drama, occasionally amusing. Tom is a womanizing bachelor who can't stay faithful to his long-term girlfriend. He begins an affair with Laura, a beautiful intriguing woman, who quickly turns the tables on him. Driven to distraction by her aloofness and disappearing acts, he can't think about anything but her. Some great lines putting the fidelity issue firmly on the other foot are quite amusing as well as enlightening. A secretive woman with her own agenda and ties to a mobster, Laura does an exquisitely executed sensual dance for Tom that is mesmerizing and escalates his obsession for her. His job in jeopardy, his life in turmoil, but unable to help himself, he becomes her pawn in a dangerous game. No Angel is an excellent movie with a message highly enjoyable.

No Angel (1992)

A satirical look at one man's obsession with women, and one mysterious woman in particular, No Angel definitely brings home the message that "if you mess around, you are going to get burned"! Even though the film was shot in 1992 the storyline and message is still very much relevant today. Tom (lead male) is your typical womanizing cad who ends up being "duped" by Laura (lead female) in the most outrageous way and even though he deserves everything he gets you empathize with his plight and take pity on the poor guy. Just when you think he can't endure anymore something else happens! A well written script, great score, a great cast and many hilarious moments make No Angel a film that will be heartily enjoyed!
