All you need to know about Unlawful Entry is that its title is a pun. Ray Liotta is typecast as the creepy weirdo who has designs on somebody else's Madaleine Stowe. This might have played as a twist if not for the fact that Ray Liotta is physically incapable of playing a good guy. The only real question is what he wants: does he want the money or the wife? Kurt Russell's character is completely blind about it though. I was shouting at my Laserdisc player at one point: anyone who tells Ray Liotta their security password has clearly never seen a Ray Liotta movie before. The only other thing worth talking about here is the audacity of the title. It has two meanings. There's a house break-in. There's also a sexual assault. I honestly can't believe that passed quality control. Its just an icky title.Movie is totally tepid and predictable. Do not recommend.

I have seen cunning psychotic characters in a great number of movies. But the cop character Ray Liotta plays in Unlawful Entry is unforgettable. He really hit the nail on the head! Sometimes I feel that people that create such characters must have dealt with real life individuals with very similar psychotic tendencies. I mean how do you explain the behavior of that cop in Unlawful Entry?? The man was simply bad news and he believed in what he was doing. He meant business.It would be nice to see Kurt Russell, Madeline Stowe and Ray Liotta team up again in similar roles but with a different plot.Great acting indeed from the cast members.

Awful thriller , i don't care but amazon is to blame them idiots made me waste my time with this garbage by giving it star. But i don't bother im not wasting time again , this film is not interesting it is loaded with sexual acts and a creepy bad guy who stalks Kurt Russel and his wife and then it is just the two fighting over her, so the story is very stupid and the acting is not intriguing as the film is just tame for the revenge scenes and just , violent acts, a villain, cops on the go, Kurt Russel in the film that that could have been classic, this is not a 90s class film it is more like a film today , overrated for moderate threat and gun fights and blood.

The basic idea of this movie is very interesting. It is a "what if" that is believable. The cast is good and the cat is doing his or her best in a kitty bit.This movie would have been much better without breast shots. The film needed Alfred Hitchcock and Jimmy Stewart and Doris Day and maybe Jack Palance. Kurt Russell is no slouch, but he takes it too seriously. Just because someone is trying to maybe kill your wife or take her from you or maybe he is a bit off center, is that any reason to get so angry? Things that date a movie are scenes with any computer or phone or naked bosoms. Women wear blouses now. The opening title sequence is well done. The photography is quite good throughout the film. The music is OK, but a real Hitchcock orchestration would have helped. Unchained Melody would have worked in many parts of this production. High Noon Theme or Dragnet Theme in places. Not those songs but something new with that feel.Since the movie was in color I think the cat should have been black and white. Also the cat should have had a good name that could have been the name of the movie, like Hondo or Lassie or Flicka or Danger Puss. Something like that.
