At the offices of a Japanese corporation, during a party, a woman, who is evidently a professional mistress, is found dead, apparently after some rough hanky panky.
1993 was apparently a good year for Michael Crichton. He had "Jurassic Park", one of the biggest hits of all time. And then he had this, which I think has been more or less forgotten. Which is a bit of a shame, because the Connery / Snipes pairing is interesting, as is the slight dip into the Yakuza.
My concern with the film is its emphasis on digital technology. I was around in 1993 and computer literate. Surely editing a video was possible, but to the extent it is shown here? It would be darn near impossible... the frame-by-frame editing would take much too long. But if I ignore that, it makes for a great thriller.
