the wife of the murdered man. The wife turns to a
professor at college who is a medically disabled ex-cop
to help clear her. Not wanting the job at first, he
eventually does begin to investigate the crime while
fighting the demons and the pain of his own life.
The clues are scarce, but one clue is that the man
was murdered with an unusual weapon - a musket.
Comments:
This
is not a stellar performance by Tom Berenger. This
obvious low-budget movie does not make an impression.
The plot seems to have many holes and the story line
never really comes together. Berenger, a former cop,
and now college professor is lured into finding the
killer of a woman's husband and also tries to find
the husband's lover. The movie's flashbacks are confusing
and never make things that clear. The movie jumps
around too much and it never gives the viewer a chance
to get comfortable with any one character or situation.
This movie falls short of expectations and is one
of Berenger's saddest roles and performances. He never
seems to be comfortable with his character and it
seems way too obvious in this movie.
