A melodramatic thriller which did surprisingly well in the US given its implausible straight-to-video scenario. Undistinguished.

It's got suspense but no staying power.

The only thing that makes this ludicrous botch even borderline watchable is Alec Baldwin's enjoyably supercilious performance as a leering stud surgeon who thinks nothing of belting back shots of bourbon before going in to perform an operation.

In its efforts to be unpredictable, the film instead becomes unbelievable.
