What Lies Behind the Smile (Looking Behind: Part 2) (Sizzling Erotic Thriller)

The Perfect Guy review – thriller fizzles when it should sizzle

---

Why critics knocked it so much, I don't know. Hey, it's good entertainment. What more do you want? Slick genre piece rmax 18 April Pacino looks a little beat here. But it's perfectly okay because his age and somewhat reduced physical presence fit the role. He's a disillusioned, divorced, lonely cop who gets bagged up and calls people at three in the morning. He gets involved more or less by accident with Ellen Barkin, who may or may not be a serial killer and a "nutcase. There's something vaguely predatory about her slitted eyes and lips, and there's an animal quality to her first sexual encounter with Pacino.

She smooches him up voraciously in his darkened apartment then tears herself away to stalk back and forth in her tiny skirt muttering hoarse ululations before jumping his bones and almost killing him. The support is equally good John Goodman is the soul of cheerful, friendly understanding, just as he was before revealing his slightly berserk side in "Barton Fink. Alas he's required to do one of those stupid male strip-tease dances like Gene Hackman's in "Scarecrow" and Michael Ontkean's in "Slap Shot. I always enjoy Bill Hickey too, here as Pacino's father.

There was just something about Hickey that made his every performance memorable. Too bad he didn't spend more time on screen during his career. Rooker, as the murderer, is typecast but gets the job done. The direction is competent, but the writing, by Richard Price, is more than that. It's really pretty good. Not just in the dramatic scenes but in the interpolated comic interludes as well. Pacino is pitching woo to a beautiful woman who apologizes for being older than he is. You're twice as good looking as three quarters of the women I know who are half your age Did that come out right?

Many of the scenes are shot at night and they don't make easy use of New York locations. Pacino and Barkin don't throw themselves into an embrace in front of the fountain at Lincoln Center. Nobody drives across the Brooklyn Bridge. In fact, nobody drives, so there are no car chases ending in collosal crashes on the FDR, which is fine with me.

It's still a genre movie, not very demanding of the audience, but it's quite well done. I'm not fond of "Sea of Love" the song, or any of 50s rock, but Pacino and the others would be. There's nothing much else in the way of a score, but I must mention the scene in which Pacino takes Barkin to a fancy restaurant to propose to her. The waiter takes forever to bring a menu. Meanwhile Pacino is nervously belting down drinks the payoff comes later and the most hideous strolling violinist in the world keep playing absolutely lousy renditions of "Strangers in the Night" and something that Bach might have written during a hallucination.

Ebony Desires (Interracial Romance Erotica) (Deon Macqueen Esquire Book 1)

My twelve-year-old kid would have been more often on key. This guy is lost on the Kreisler Highway. Spikeopath 26 August Music is by Trevor Jones and Ronnie Taylor is the cinematographer. Plot has Pacino as New York Police Detective Frank Keller, a borderline alcoholic and lonely after his wife left him for one of his colleagues.

Tracking a serial killer of men, an investigation set-up leads him to date a number of women with the idea of obtaining forensic evidence off of the wine glasses. One of these women is sultry blonde, Helen Cruger Barkin , who Frank starts to have a passionate relationship with..

The erotic thriller is a tough premise to get right on film, so many elements have to fall in to place for the film to win over critics and film goers alike. Chemistry of lead cast members, a gripping plot, plausible outcome, and so on. Too many over the years have failed miserably at it, resorting to either gratuitous tactics or simple star casting to entice the paying public in to the theatre. Sea of Love is not a complete success, but it's certainly one of the best of its type.

Were it not for a weak murder motive that's not fully explored, resulting in something of an unsatisfying finale, we would probably be talking about Sea of Love being the template movie for the erotic thriller. All else that leads up to the last 15 minutes is sizzling, Barkin and Pacino spark in every scene they share, where even with the sex scenes, the fact that Barkin towers over Pacino doesn't detract from the sexual chemistry, it adds to it.

It's smart, too, that we don't see Barkin for the first third of the movie, the anticipation builds up and thankfully upon arriving into the picture she doesn't disappoint. Goodman is ebullient and makes a good foil for Pacino's haggard life sucks act, his Sherman an easy to get on side with character. The guessing game at the heart of the plot is well handled by the makers, there's no stupid giveaways or overkill of red herrings, while the edgy lonely hearts basis for both the killings and the investigative trap is nicely written by Richard Price.

Fusing both loneliness and sexual needs together as one, Becker is able to get much emotional mileage out of the story. If only the ending could have made good on the promise shown. Come the last 15 minutes the "is she or isn't she the killer? It's essentially a tale about a search for a serial killer but also it's about a passionate affair involving two people who are both lonely and reluctant to trust each other. Richard Price's screenplay adapted from his own book "Ladies Man" is sharp and convincing throughout but it's especially strong during the exchanges between the police officers.

Police Detective Frank Keller Al Pacino is assigned to investigate a murder in Manhattan in which a man was shot dead whilst lying face down and naked on his bed. At the crime scene, the song "Sea Of Love" is being played on a nearby turntable and the items of evidence found include a cigarette end with lipstick on it, a set of fingerprints and a newspaper cutting which includes a lonely hearts advert placed by the deceased. The evidence suggests that the killer was probably an embittered woman who'd replied to the victim's ad. When Keller meets Detective Sherman Touhey John Goodman who's investigating a murder which was carried out in identical circumstances in Queens, the two men decide to join forces in their search for what appears to be a serial killer.

After a third man is murdered in the same way, the two detectives embark on a scheme to identify the culprit. As all three victims had placed rhyming ads, the detectives place their own rhyming entry in the personal column and then invite the respondents to a date at a local restaurant. There Keller acts as the guy who'd placed the ad and Touhey acts as a waiter who collects the women's wine glasses and places them in evidence bags so that the fingerprints can be checked against those found at the murder scenes.

She very quickly seems to become uncomfortable with him and leaves without having touched her glass. A chance meeting with her some time later provides Keller with an opportunity to get her fingerprints but things get more complicated and his priorities change when he becomes infatuated with her and they get involved in a very passionate affair. Al Pacino, in one of his best ever screen performances, is totally believable as the lonely, jaded cop who has completed 20 years in the job and experiences a feeling of dread when the subject of retirement is mentioned as he has nothing in life but his job.

His wife left him for one of his colleagues, he drinks too much and he's more then a little bitter. Pacino's deportment exudes all these characteristics in spades and it's quite credible that the despair of someone in his circumstances could lead them into a reckless affair with an attractive murder suspect. Ellen Barkin is brilliant as the inscrutable Helen who, importantly in the context of the plot, shows all the attributes of a femme fatale. She gives out contradictory signals, can be alternately aggressive and vulnerable and seems to have a low opinion of men although she's obviously powerfully attracted to them.

John Goodman is also great as Keller's good natured, extrovert partner and his sense of fun illuminates a number of scenes. The deep rooted sense of sadness and loneliness which is a significant feature of the characters played by Pacino and Barkin is also reflected in the melancholic quality of Trevor Jones' superb score, the song "Sea Of Love" and the exceptional shadow laden cinematography by Ronnie Taylor. Ellen Barkin sexy as ever,, the sex scenes just rocked. There's a lonely hearts killer in the city and it's up to a pair of cops, one from the Bronx, the other from Manhattan to catch up to a grizzly killer who answer's single's ad's but only ones that rhyme,, so the pair of detectives decide that the best way to catch our killer is to set themselves up on "dates", and get the fingerprints off of the glass.

While Al Pacino and Ellen Barkin do a good job, John Goodmam steals the show as the cop from Queens who wants to make it into the "big time" of Manhattan. My biggest problem with this movie is the abundance of plot holes that never get filled. What does the song "Sea of Love" have anything to do with anything? Why does the killer leave it playing on the victim's turntable instead of taking it with him? Why don't the cops go to record stores to ask who has been buying this same old 45 once a week? Why do the cops continue with their lonely hearts baiting scheme if there aren't any more killings once Pacino meets Barkin?

Why did the killer wait so long to attack Pacino when it was obvious he killed the other men immediately after his ex-wife's first encounter with them? What cop doesn't have photographs of other cops hanging all over the walls in his apartment so that anyone who walks in can tell right off the bat that he's a cop? What man who gets sloppy drunk every night keeps such a neat apartment in the first place? What man considers asking a woman to move in with him when he hasn't even met the woman's child and doesn't even know the kid's name? Why did Barkin's character stay with Pacino's character after she found out what an annoying lush he was?

And most importantly, what woman would allow her husband to invite a complete stranger to her daughter's wedding at the very last minute, and then let them discuss police work? It wasn't a completely bad movie, and there were some good parts, but overall it left me wondering about too many things. Sea Of Love marks Al's big return to the screen, in probably not the best pic, after that dud, Revolution. He plays a cop who's working a serial killer case where supposedly a female killer out there is killing guys, who have answered to these lonely hearts ads.

Each victim is found, bare naked on their stomach, with the song Sea Of Love, playing on an L P, nearby. He falls in love with a suspect, Ellen Barkin, who's never looked hotter. Sizzle lived up to my every expectation. Everyone should put this book on their ereader! I higly recommend Sizzle for all fans of hot romance here. View all 4 comments. This is a great series opener, introducing a whole bunch of new characters which we are sure to enjoy during the series.

Their attraction to one another is incendiary and instant and they are going to find it extremely difficult to keep their hands off one anotherl To add to the confusion, Jack is engaged to be married to Mia and the wedding is just a few weeks away. This one had the strange juxtaposition of mixing the modern world, rockers, piercings, tatts with very old world strong family values — Jack has been commanded by his father to marry Mia, to study law and to enter the family business.

In fact, this whole path would have been far more suited to Liam who is secretly in love with Mia and Liam has managed to convince Thalia to pose as his girlfriend for the summer. What an incredibly tangled web they did all weave!! I enjoyed this even though I seriously questioned some of the decisions made by the central characters. Her own family are also a collection of cold fish. He is swoon worthy.

He is every girls bad boy rocker dream come true. He is hotness overload. So much more to this story than your average rock book, inhaled it, loved it, couldn't put it down!! View all 6 comments. First off, who could resist this cover? So when I searched Amazon and found out it was released, I was all over this. For the most part, it was a good read and not as angsty as I thought it was; which was a relief by the way.

Sometimes too much angst makes my blood pressure go up and I have no choice but to put it down and breathe. However, this story was actually far from angsty. Can you believe it? I mean, after reading the blurb, I thought for sure there was going to be an abundance, but nope, nada, zero, zilch -- no cheating. Did you get that? Another positive is his band mates, Donovan and Reese.

Holy shit, these guys are H. Just so you know, these guys are best friends, who like share things. However, Jack and his crew can only take a story so far. There were a number of things that prevent me from giving this at least four stars. Here are a few minor negatives: It just so happened that Jack, Donovan and Reese played together. For most of the story, Thalia, our heroine, referred to Jack as Jack. From then on she referred to him by Phoenix. When I found out why he was so adamant on having Jack as a son-in-law, I was just like What?! To find out that all this drama was because of that was a bit of a let down.

All in all, the story was pretty entertaining. This book was so ridiculous! I don't even know where to start Well, honestly, it started off pretty good. There's a bit of anticipation. Jack had this cool vibe and swagger going on. And Thalia was likeable. But after the first few chapters, everything went downhill. Their connection was not believable. No chemistry at all! Jack always talked about his cock! There w My God!!! There were millions of "cock" and "dick" words in this story and billions of adjectives describing it!!! Talking about too much addiction and fixation with that piece of junk!!!

Thalia may be likeable at first. But she ended up as a boring character. She's also just as fixated with Jack's, yep, cock! After they had sex, she fell deeply in love After they had tons of sex, he fell in love as well. And almost after each sex, they said "I love you"!!! I know some did like it. But it really didn't work for me. I'm not a prude. But it's just that a story even an erotic one needs to have sense.

I really, really wanted to like this book, but couldn't get past the gratuitous use of the C-word, throw a P-word in there every so often to change it up and the fact that the guy was constantly using his fist instead of his hand.

If you decide to read this you will know what I am talking about, as I'm trying to be clean. Thalia is in college and doesn't want to go home for the summer as her parents are too controlling. She is se Enjoy the cover ladies, as the rest of the book isn't that great. She is semi-dating Liam and decides to go home with him. Liam and Thalia haven't kissed or done anything else, but say they are dating, I think.

Weird from the start. So Liam warns Thalia that his family, mainly his brother, is a little different. Although they aren't dating, Liam asks Thalia to pretend that she is his girlfriend. Jack is Liam's older brother that is a walking erection, as in he always has one and is always talking about it. He is 26, so you would figure he is a bit more mature than that. Jack is being forced to marry Mia the daughter of his fathers business partner. He doesn't love Mia and doesn't want to marry her, but will loose his tuition if he doesn't. Jack sees Thalia and loves her instantly.

Now I don't mind instant romance, but this one annoyed me for some reason. They were worried about each other way too fast and talking about how they miss each other after just being together, but not doing anything sexual. So we are in this creepy love square of Liam, Thalia, Jack and Mia, what a mess. The writing seemed like the author was trying too hard to be hip and sexy. The sex scenes weren't that great and sometimes just over the top and gross. This was a long drawn out book, I had a hard time finishing it. It is a bit misleading saying it is about a rock star, as that is some sort of secret Jack keeps.

The icing on the cake was Thalia calling Jack by his stage name because it was soooo sexy. I found this book a bit cheesy and immature for my liking. Jul 25, Jackie rated it did not like it Shelves: Between the cover and the blurb gal falls for BF's brother who is engaged , I was excited for this one. The beginning had me interested but it didn't take long for this one to go downhill.

The writing was atrocious. The sex scenes were not hot. Another thing that bugged me was when something would happen and then one of the characters would go off and tell their friends, through di Between the cover and the blurb gal falls for BF's brother who is engaged , I was excited for this one. Another thing that bugged me was when something would happen and then one of the characters would go off and tell their friends, through dialogue, exactly what happened.

So essentially, I would read it twice within a few pages. It also bugged me when Thalia called Jack 'Phoenix', i don't know I mean I get the story behind the nickname but it just sounded weird to have her call him that. One of the biggest annoyances for me was the plot was just ridiculous. Everything tied up perfectly in the end and there was a lot of unnecessary drama. Really, just everything bugged me about this book and the way it was written. I won't be waiting for book 2, that's for sure. Well, I'm not sure what happened to my original review of this book probably for the best I found that the characters were one dimensional and the story not well developed.

It was all very juvenile. I remember doing a lot of this: This was not for me. View all 9 comments. Feb 16, Laura's Book Addiction rated it liked it Shelves: Ohh I need this book soo bad. View all 3 comments. Apr 03, Christina marked it as to-read Shelves: Holy shit this looks good! May 06, Lindsay rated it liked it Recommended to Lindsay by: This is one of the rare books that is going to get a half star from me. My actual rating is 3. I'll admit that prior to starting this book, I felt a book funk coming on. I hate that feeling, nothing was appealing to me. But once I read the description of this book, it started screaming at me.

I started it immediately. What's not to love? A bad boy who's got tattoos and piercings. Throw in the fact that he's a musician of the unfamous variety [image error] and I'm hooked. I wanted to love this This is one of the rare books that is going to get a half star from me. I wanted to love this book, and there were pars that I did love. But as I was reading, I couldn't help but think that while the premise was good, the execution was off.

Things just didn't come together for me. Then he turned into an indecisive yo-yo and there's only so much I can take of that. By the end, I had lost interest and didn't care if he got his HEA. If I had been Thalia, I would have walked away from him. Something else that bothered me was Thalia suddenly calling Jack by his former nickname Phoenix. I didn't like the change and found it kind of cheesy.

It just didn't fit. No one else called him that anymore and she didn't know him when they did call him Phoenix in the past. There were also some inconsistencies with Jack's parents. They were set up as jerks from page one, then in the end they were completely ok with everything. Now, granted, it's nice to see supportive parents, but their actions didn't fit with the people I had come to know. Even with my issues, I would read more from this author and more of this series. I can't wait to find out what happens to Reece and Donovan. View all 12 comments.
