Enchorde Recap: Ben Keats is the director of small but upcoming company Viztrax (or something like it) that is about to hit it big. His success has not gone unnoticed and soon he gets a call from the executive head hunter Vincent Palmer. Palmer is brutally (literally) ruthless and won't take no for an answer. Palmer's methods are obsessive. Keats first thinks he can just turn him away but Palmer then begins to stalk him and his family. And Keats start to think that Palmer's methods are not so innocent. At the same time he got to handle his family that is starting to crack under the pressure.Comments: A thriller that quickly ran out of promise and got tiresome. The character Palmer is meant to be very obsessive and oppressive, yes, but this felt like over the top. I generally like Slater but this time he mishandled his role, or got the wrong directions from the director. And really, the set up doesn't hold. A homicidal head hunter? Really? But the worst fault was a classic one. One that many second rate thrillers have fallen into before, but this one seemed a need to explore once more. The one were the supposed victim thinks he can do it all himself so much that he is over and far beyond the line of stupidity. He don't communicate with his wife. Not at all. Some of that can be explained as they recently has hit a rough patch. But when Ben get pretty sure that Vincent is seriously dangerous, and threatens his family and Vincent still doesn't have any real hold on him yet, why don't he go to the police? Or at least the security consultant that his company already has hired? Instead he plays along, inevitably getting caught in Vincent's net.The cast is actually rather good, Gillows, Slater are joined by Warren and Clarke Duncan. But they never seem to get something going. And that sums up the entire movie. It never got going. There are many thrillers out there that are a lot better. Watch them instead.3/10

sergio choren Oh my god!...this movie is terrible. The plot is silly, the goofs are very easy to find, the editing sucks, and everything is predictable. Is sad to see cool actors like Slater and Duncan Clark doing that kind of crap. The character played by Gil Bellows is probably the most stupid genius in movie history... a computer expert who can't find a way to show everybody what's happening to him. And the idea of a liquid tracking system is too much. The wife just can't believe in her husband, the boss looks strong like a bull but is terminally ill, and the security expert follows the car of a maniac without any precaution. Don't waste 2 hours of your life in this movie, really...

2cents I saw this movie in a blockbuster sale and picked it up for a couple of quid, I am a huge Christian Slater Fan but the last time I did this I picked up the god awful 'Run for the Money' (Hard Cash) so I wasn't expecting much..As a Slater fan 'Pursued' in excellent, he steals every scene that he is in and plays the corporate psycho to perfection. The first 80% of this film is a delight and I would highly recommend it to anyone.It is also nice to see Michael Clarke Duncan in a normal acting role, he is so often used as just a big strong enforcer type and yet 'Green Mile' showed so much more, here he gets the opportunity to just act. As does Estelle Warren who is usually just used as a the sexy blonde.Gil Bellows is slightly disappointing and this is partly why I didn't enjoy the ending but I have seen a hundred movies worse than this and if you are stuck for a flick on a rainy day then this is definitely one to watch.

tsar_ina This movie is such a big bore. I failed to understand why would a director drag such a story and pictured a real life drama in the most unrealistic way. From the beginning to start Mr. Slater is apparently attempted to be projected as a terrorizing opponent to the good corporate culture. It is so sick that the sequence of story dragged and ended up with couple of killings (Are the cops gone mute ?) which has no effect to the society. Oh I forgot to remember that the story began with a killing. Sick. A total bore. Please do not pursue to watch this movie. It is sicker than what you expect. Stay away and spend your time somewhat more useful. I am sorry. Have a good one.
