Was it worth the money?

Rating: 8/10 (14 October 1998)

The movie has a tedious start, but, like a slowly cranked vice it mounts with increasing pressure until the shattering climax. This movie is well thought out, it takes a stretch of the imagination but once you have gotten the mind set for the movie it is a great storyline. Douglas plays the rich, morose, tightwad with perfection. When I left the movie theatre, I felt that my 8.75$ was well spent.
