Recommended by an unlikely source.......2007-04-12

My uncle of all people was the one that recommended this movie to me. At first I was skeptical but I rented it and loved it! Usually this type of movie is considered a "chick flick" but I think this particular movie caters to both men and women. It is a very romantic and tastefully done movie. I recently purchased the movie and sent it to my uncle as a "thank you" gift and he couldn't be happier.

The movie was very entertaining! I enjoyed it with my mother. This purchase was for her!

Danielle Steel's A Perfect Stranger.......2006-02-25

I love Robert Urich, so anything with him starrring in it is great! He really was a great actor, and I was extremely sad when he lost his battle with cancer a few years back.
A Perfect Stranger is a beautiful love story written in typical Danielle Steele fashion. You cry and hurt for those involved, but you know you're going to get a happy ending, so it's all worth it!

It's of course a question of taste..........2006-02-04

But I personally think, there are three things that makes the essence of a good romance: good story (it is one), beautiful and talented leading actress (she is one), but also a dashing leading actor (sorry, he is not one).

Perfection.......2005-09-28

The story line is beautiful. The acting is excellent. These two really "click." I first saw it on television and now I have ordered it so that I can see it again and again. I love the travel between the cities of New York and San Francisco. It is just plain WONDERFUL. Whoever put it together - thank you!

Product Description

Prepare to go behind the scenes of one of the nation s most tragic and inexplicable murders. By all appearances, Scott and Laci Peterson were the perfect couple - until Christmas Eve 2002, when 28-year-old Laci went missing while walking her dog. After an agonizing almost four-month search, her body, and that of her unborn child were found in the Richmond marina at Point Isabel. As the investigation and the media frenzy came to a shocking head, Scott was arrested for the homicide. Now, as the nation stands in wait, and Scott stands accused, The Perfect Husband tracks the events leading up to Laci s disappearance and death through the people who knew them best.

DVD Review.......2007-05-12

I think the movie was well done and the actors played their parts well. I was watching the actual trial and facts in the movie followed the trial very close.

pretty good.......2006-07-13

dean cain did a good job, i thought it could of been better, but the points and details were pretty much key and some parts lacked..but over all it was pretty good

broad, choppy, yet interesting take on a very important case.......2006-06-08

My curiosity and heightening interest in the Laci Peterson case finally compelled me to rent this film. Having become heavily focused on all aspects of the case from the time I read Sharon Rocha's recent heart-tugger "For Laci," I was very interested in seeing the film that was formulated and inspired by Amber Frey's quickly released book "Witness."

My opinions on the performance of Dean Cain clearly will not differ from those of anyone else's on this site; he did a remarkable job at hitting it right on the nail. His eyes, his mannerisms, his behavior...it was all amazingly on target. In his interviews and conversations with others about Laci, Scott Peterson has been known for using "uh" and "um" more than actual words from the English language in order to bridge the gap between concocting his lies and actually saying them. The way he has stared into space and babbled aimlessly to the extent that he sometimes actually forgot the question he was initially asked speaks volumes in itself, and Dean Cain did a perfect job at re-enacting that.

As for the film focusing predominantly on Scott, his behavior and his two "composite" friends Tommy and Kate, I think what we have to understand here is that this movie was made just as Scott was arrested and taken to trial. That was a point in the case where everything started crashing down, and of course everyone wanted to get as much emphasis as they could on how Scott Peterson was reacting to everything surrounding his wife's disappearance, as well as the discovery of Laci and Conner's bodies. At that time, everyone really needed and wanted to see what Scott's present role was in all of this, and I think that was the portrait this movie tried to convey.

Granted, the movie was made much too early, but such is to be expected with cases like this--people are always eager to spawn a TV movie as quickly as possible. The scenes were choppy and seemed to end really abruptly. It was a quick-paced, 86-minute TV film that lacked emotion and close examination of Laci's family and friends, who deserve to have their perspective acknowledged.

All in all, though, it was a good enough film for what it was: a quick, informative story that wanted to lay out some facts and shed some light on Scott's overall demeanor. Even if some of the information was a bit scattered and wayward, they did a good job at zooming in on Scott and revisiting some of the word-to-word conversations that he had with police, Amber, friends, and members of Laci's family.

It is a truly gripping story, unforgettable and worthy of a fuller portrait (similar to the book that Laci's mother Sharon wrote earlier this year). Given a few more years (or maybe a lot more years), I think this will make a terrific movie, providing more complete details and a well-rounded pursuit of the feelings and emotions experienced by everyone involved. It's a case with very raw human emotions that America has really gravitated to, and it is really a startling moment from history that people will remember for decades to come. A future movie could include areas about Scott and Laci's courtship, marriage, and life before December 24, 2002. So much has been documented about Scott, his mistress Amber Frey, and the charges he has faced, but it would be nice to get even more on sweet Laci--the innocent victim who was mere weeks away from delivering her first child when an indescribable crime took it all away from her. Discussing all these details would surely make an excellent film that I would watch without hesitation, and I have no doubt that it will eventually happen.

Scott, Scott, Scott.......2006-03-12

I first watched this on USA. I did find it on DVD at Best Buy. There are definitely things that are incorrect. There's way too much focus on Scott, not enough on Laci or her family (including Conner), and way too much on Tommy and Kate. Not enough coverage with Amber, either. I think this movie was made too early, because it ends with his arrest. They should have waited a year or two and at least have the facts. But I still like it, because it is actually a good drama. I also like the music that builds up to scenes and in the end. I feel for Laci, Conner and her family, with all the hell they must be going through. R.I.P.

Started out OK.......2006-01-22

PERFECT HUSBAND is a watchable film, but far from perfect. It just moves too slowly for its own good. Add the annoying best friend who refused to believe anything bad about Scott Peterson and this made it a reasonably difficult 84 minutes to sit through.

Those criticisms aside, Dean Cain was quite good in his role as Scott, as was the grieving Dee Wallace as Laci's mother. However at the end of the day, why does a movie like this get made when this sort of thing goes on all the time every day of the week across the world. Was there something particular about these cirumstances that warranted a film? I ask this because the script for the film was not written well enough to pull the viewer in. Not enough information was presented to the viewer to help us form an opinion.

I could not believe this movie was based on a true story. It just shows me that no matter where you are on this earth, all the money in the world can not buy you a crime free world. This was a story told very well.

Highly highly recommended.

Hilarious Hong Kong Comedy.......2007-02-13

Chow Yun Fat stars in the hilarious tale of misunderstandings and crazy husbands and wives. I don't want to give away the storyline but I will say that this film is definately one of Chow Yun Fat's best comedies, if not THE best. You will laugh, listen to great 80's music, and have affection for all the characters.

Chow Yun-Fat in a interesting Comedy.......2005-06-11

1986 Hong Kong Comedy Film (something of a romantic comedy). Also Known as "Shaqi Errenzu."

DVD Features: The DVD contains the film (in Cantonese or Mandarin and with subtitles in: Traditional Chinese; Simplified Chinese; Japanese; Korean; Nil; or English), the film trailer (in Chinese), and 2 other trailers (The Fun, The Luck & The Tycoon; The Seventh Curse).

Credits: The movie stars Chow Yun-Fat (Football Fa; "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" "Killer"), Joey Wong ("Miss Malaysia Wang Hsiao Hsien"; "Shanghai Story"), Kenny Bee (Roberto; "Initial D"), Anthony Chan (Chen Chih-Tao; "Hero of the Beggars"), and Anita Mui (Fang; "July Rhapsody"). The movie is directed by Kenny Bee.

Plot: Two men, drunk and filled with frustration with their marriage, arrange elaborate methods for their wives to die. Later, sober, they regret their actions. It's the Hitchcock "Stranger's on a train" plot, but this time in Chinese, without the train, and played for laughs.

Review: I hadn't seen Chow Yun-Fat in an Asian comedy, so I was interested in seeing in something other than drama/action/adventure Asian films, or US films (right, should mention that I like Chow Yun-Fat as an actor)/.

Oddly enough, the movie opens up on a soccer match (otherwise known as football), specifically the final Governor's Cup game (the film starts with the score tied 4-4 and in double overtime; note: don't try to watch a sports movie and read subtitles at the same time, quite annoying). Unless I'm mistaken, the two main characters, including a very young looking Chow Yun-Fat are playing a soccer players (I believe they are "Roberto" and "Brother Fa" or "Football Fa" depending on the speaker). Football Fa is suspicious of his wife and overhears a tiny bit of conversation that suggests that his wife might want him killed (the wife was joking around, not serious; other than being suspicious of his wife, both for murderous intentions and possible sleeping around, his wife seems nicer to him than Roberto's wife is to Roberto). Roberto's wife constantly complains and nags him (actually the neighbors seem to like to join in on the nagging, how fun). Thus the "reason" is somewhat set for the two men to come together, get drunk, and set up elaborate plans to have their wives killed. Of course, the real humor begins when the men try to kill the other's wife (don't want to reveal too much, but it is mostly one egging on the other to kill his (the one egging on the other) wife, and that other man trying to try various methods to kill the wife).

The movie is interesting, but, as a "comedy" it is hard to find it funny through subtitles (though, if you try, you can find some of the word play funny), so the humor mostly has to come through other means (situations, physical actions of the actors, etc.). Situational, word play, misunderstandings humor, physical humor, are all included in the film, and all have some funny moments (like Roberto driving too fast and almost running down some police officers; or the drunk Roberto washing his hair with shaving cream in the urinal; and Roberto's wife trying to cook a live rooster for hen soup . . . ). The is actually a lot better than I expected, and quite humorous. The acting is hard to determine, since I do not understand the language, but seems good. Overall, I would give the movie 4.05 stars.

Funny underrated movie!!!!!!.......2002-05-03

Ok, they don't really think of 100 ways, just a dozen or so. But don't worry, no one gets killed at all. If you only thought Chow Yun-fat can act only in action movies, you're missing out on some of his best comedies. This is definitely one of them. Anita Mui is really funny as a nagging wife and Joey Wang is prettier than ever. This would be great for a family night when you're bored or just having a bad day. This is pure comedy, from beginning to end. I have it on video and this is one of my favorite and funniest Chow Yun-fat movies.

Product Description

Two hard-hitting turn-of-the-21st-century noir films appear back-to-back; individual descriptions of the movies follow: SHADOW HOURS (2000) - The underside of Los Angeles is the setting for SHADOW HOURS, a fast paced noir thriller that pits Michael Holloway (Balthazar Getty) against the devil. Moving quickly along with the beat of its techno soundtrack, the film follows Holloway as he tries to make a new life for himself. Working the graveyard shift at a seedy Los Angeles gas station provides hours of boredom and a ringside seat to the craziness of Los Angeles as Holloway, a recovered drug addict, tries desperately to survive, with only his pregnant wife Chloe (Rebecca Gayheart) to support him. When rich, Porsche-driving "writer" Stuart Chapell (Peter Weller) drives in seeking help with nocturnal research for his new novel, Holloway's attempts at maintaining a normal life are derailed. What starts as a seemingly innocent tour of the exotic and shocking nightlife of Los Angeles quickly transforms into a drug-soaked and decadent descent into debauchery. THE PERFECT WIFE (2001) - When the beautiful young Liza (Shannon Sturges) witnesses her beloved brother's horrible death in a car accident, she vows revenge against both the drunk driver responsible and the doctor who could not save his life. After killing the first, she hatches an elaborate plan to murder the doctor. The first step in this plan--marrying him.
