One of Steven Soderbergh's early films, a bit too slow of a burn neo-noir, character study that features some fine performances by Peter Gallagher and Alison Elliott. Wasn't completely enamored with the movie but the last 30-minutes were okay and you could see Soderbergh's style coming into fruition that he would utilize a few years later with Traffic, which still remains my personal favorite from him. **3.0/5**
The Underneath (1995)
For passion, betrayal and murder... there's still no place like home.
A recovering gambling addict attempts to reconcile with his family and friends but finds trouble and temptation when caught between feelings for his ex-wife and her dangerous hoodlum boyfriend.
