I think she holds the title for 'Least Convincing Movie Cop' I'd like to see her share a film with Denise Richards' nuclear physicist from The World Is Not Enough . . .

If you are talking about the Blue Underground release I have to disagree!
One of the worst picture quality...

That's the same review that made me buy it in the first place.
But when I saw it live I thought the review had been very generous to say the least.
After I saw some forums I learned that the majority of the people had the same opinion as me. I'll post later some reviews that state somehow what I say.

But keep in mind that this is just my opinion and it shouldn't detratct your viewing plesure and your opinion of said product. There were many time in the past, and there will more in the future tha opinions don't mix, both in favour or against.

Default Need help with title???

I'm pretty sure I own the movie, but can anyone think of a giallo with a scene in a cemetery, which involves an open grave and a snake?

Random I know, but it's bugging me now.

Strangely I thought she was halfway decent in Stendhal, way better than in Trauma or that abysmal performance she gave in Phantom Of The Opera. Taste differs....

A film pairing her with Sophia Coppola would be deadly. Directors should maybe keep their daughters and films seperate . . .

My comment was only tongue in cheek.

Asia's alright really. I recall her being excellent in La Reine Margot.
