Judas Kiss (1998)
60KJudas Kiss: Directed by Sebastian Gutierrez. With Carla Gugino, Simon Baker, Emma Thompson, Alan Rickman. A couple and two hired hands kidnap a business owner for a four million dollar ransom. A woman is killed. Collateral damage? The F.B.I. gets involved.
“Featuring a u0026quot;Body Heat meets Pulp Fictionu0026quot; plot, some delightful film moments, too easy performances from Rickman and Thompson, this first outing is solid and stylish. Well-written dialogue is delivered by a sexy young cast in a hit and run series of well-composed scenes. Political intrigue mixes with sexual dynamics against a crime and crisis backdrop. New Orleans provides historical richness to contrast high-tech communications tricks on the part of the kidnap gang. Recommended…”
