Not so bad at all. I expected very little from this movie, but it turned out this was an average, decently written and produced film which manages to involve the viewer for the duration. It is never boring or predictable. A real surprise!The story is rather original, the characters are believable (even though they are voluntarily somewhat cartoon-like) and the whole plot somehow makes sense. And then there is Teri Polo... She is awesome! She alone is worth the price of admission. I am surprised her career didn't go much better than it actually did because this girl should be a box office magnet!All in all, a movie which was a pleasant surprise where none was expected.

The plot has a clever little twist, the titled assassin to a woman! Teri Polo is excellent, and veteran character actor Jeff Fahey plays his role with a somewhat sadistic cheerfulness. Tia Carrera, fresh off from Wayne's World, expands herself as Fahey's police partner. Martin Donovan is another fine bit of casting, as the somewhat nerdish, and weak will accountant who Quick was assigned to kill. The film benefits from another character actor in Robert Davi, who has to be one of the most busy men in Hollywood history, as somehow, he always manages to appear in at least 2 or 3 films a year. While some of the twist may appear a little tired, somehow, everything seems fresh and the cast is very energetic. One of the amazing things about the film is that manages to stray away from falling into the Thelma & Louise genre by not forcing Polo's Quick character to have an overtly feminist mannerisms. This was another one of those action flicks that HBO used to show as part of the long ago Action Thursday! series they used to have years ago. Alas, gone are those days. Now were stuck with recent movies ad nuesuem. Without a doubt, this movie is a plus for any action fan.

Teri Polo has to be the least convincing assassin that I have ever seen in a movie. Her performance was beyond terrible. Stick to comedies Teri, action isn't your calling.Teri portrays Hollywood's favorite cliché, the assassin with a heart of gold, and finds herself fleeing for her life with a nerdy accountant who is smitten with her. The rest of the cast, vets like Robert Davi, Miguel Sandoval and Tia Carrere, just took up scenery and their characters had little substance.As far as acting goes, Jeff Fahey does the best job here. I would urge you to avoid it, unless you just have to see Teri Polo naked.

Teri Polo stars as an assassin who latest job is a mob accountant. Soon she realizes she has been set up and takes off to settle the score..Also with Tia Carrere, this movie is fast paced and easy to watch but don't expect alot of skin. On a scale of one to ten..a 5
