Product: Jeffrey [VHS] (1995)
Rating: 3.0
Frankly I expected more
Given such a stellar cast it's amazing there could have been so many boring stretches -- mostly Jeffrey's fantasies, which are so silly as to not seem funny at all. On the other hand, if these are edited out, the remaining story, though shorter, emerges with energy and tension to snare your imagination. Weiss was truly excellent as the hot pursuing lover. Weber was OK but he was overshadowed by Weiss. Patrick Stewart nearly stole the whole show for himself, as his excellence as an actor is far beyond that of his co-stars, who lack his experience and training. Notwithstanding the problems of this movie, it is enjoyable on the whole and more than worth the price.
