Tom Berenger plays a blue-collar NYPD detective assigned to protect a wealthy murder witness (Mimi Rogers). Soon, the relationship becomes an affair, threatening Berenger's marriage to Lorraine Bracco, and the killer is still on the loose... Stylishly shot by Steven Poster, Someone to Watch Over Me is glossy, high-concept filmmaking from start to finish. (Powerhouse Films)

Okay... This can happen. As a director you make Alien, Blade Runner and then you end your streak with a boring, plain and mediocre thriller with a super long title. I’m used to the fact that if a movie is good, I won’t fall asleep watching it at night. Here I was falling asleep all the time and had to finish the movie, with respect to the director, the next day. This just didn’t work. Tom Berenger is okay as a B-list sniper but he can’t play a serious role. The rest is not much better... Yeah... Everybody makes mistakes. ()
