“I watched this film because Eric Roberts stars in it. He is one of my fave actors. Although Eric is probably approaching 50, he still looks very handsome and sexy, and has obviously kept himself in shape – as evidenced by some shirtless scenes where he looks darn good.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eEric, who is sadly underrated as an actor, in my opinion, does a fine job in this romantic thriller.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eEric plays a character named Joe, a guy who works in a casino in Atlantic City. A newly divorced dad, heu0026#39;s ripe for a new relationship and finds it with a gal named Tanya (Anne Heche), who calls herself sexykitten on-line. Thatu0026#39;s right, they meet via the Internet.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eJoe and Tanya (I noted the characters names evidently were changed since the list of the cast was first given to IMDb), quickly become enamored with one another and he is anxious to meet her in person.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eShe arrives in Atlantic City and fireworks happen. There are a few little problems for the lovers, however. Tanya confesses to Joe that she is married, and eventually tells Joe her husband, Mark, is physically abusive to her.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eJoe has had a few problems himself along the way, and he is sympathetic to Tanyau0026#39;s situation.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThey stay in touch after she returns home to Pittsburgh.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eJoe wants Tanya to leave her husband, but she is reluctant and fearful.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThings become more intense when threats, and violence occur, followed by some unexpected revelations.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe film was well-paced, entertaining, and held my interest throughout.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e8 stars out of 10”
