“Holly Hunter is skilful and charming as always, and Kiefer Sutherland is better than usual. Michael Moriarty is sufficiently different from his u0026quot;Law and Orderu0026quot; role (the only thing from which I really know him) that I can see heu0026#39;s a capable actor, not just a TV character. But everyoneu0026#39;s performance is perhaps a bit too unmodulated, with too constant a tone from start to finish. I also had trouble believing the sudden romance than blooms between Moriarty and Hunter. And the Billy Eckstine version of u0026quot;Everything I Have Is Yoursu0026quot; that plays over the closing credits is such a clash with the flavor of the rest of the movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI found the ending a bit disturbing, though. Iu0026#39;m not giving anything away thatu0026#39;s not already in the IMDB plot summary, but I couldnu0026#39;t help wondering how this odd family would make out, with a newborn that could belong either to Moriarty or Sutherland. Will they teach the child that Sutherland is the father and Moriarty as the grandfather, or that Sutherland is the half-brother and Moriarty is the father? Perhaps not a stressful as u0026quot;my sister AND my daughter,u0026quot; but awkward nonetheless. Sounds not like the end of the story but the beginning of another one.”
