Product Description: WHEN FRANK MORRISON DISCOVERS THAT HIS SON'S NEW STEPFATHER IS NOT WHO HE PRETENDS TO BE, HE SETS OUT ON A TERRIFYING MISSION TO RESCUE HIS BOY IN THIS THRILLING, CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED THRILLER.
Amazon.com: If you focus on the effective casting of John Travolta and Vince Vaughan, Domestic Disturbance may grab your attention as a thriller that hits too close to home. After playing a greasy villain in Swordfish, Travolta ably serves up the good-guy charm as a divorced father who must rescue his teenage son from a murderous new stepfather, played by Vaughan with bad-tempered relish. Director Harold Becker is worthy of better material (like his earlier hit Sea of Love), but he handles this B-movie potboiler with professional flair, particularly in the setup involving an accomplice (the ever-reliable Steve Buscemi) who threatens to destroy Vaughan's small-town respectability. The plot's about as plausible as Britney Spears in a remake of Sophie's Choice, relying heavily on lame-brained cops and vast chasms in logic, but by the time Travolta and Vaughan engage in their inevitable showdown, even childless viewers may feel a twinge of parental instinct. --Jeff Shannon

You'd think that anyone involved in this movie would be ashamed to admit it. The plot could have been written by a computer full of hack phrases. The predictable turned into straight jacket fidelity to old and tired plots of B movies. Other than that it was.... pretty bad. The acting was OK, but there was an air of desperation in the faces of the actors. Why? Well -- I can only guess here -- because maybe the director wasn't always paying attention? No, that can't be the case because this was not ... Read More

This is the type of movie that should have been made for Lifetime. The Plot is so simple that there is not one single thing that you could miss. It's like "Stepfather for Dummies". If it weren't for Travolta this movie would not have made it to theaters, it would have gone straight for the tube.
The plot of this so called "quintessential thriller" is of a boy witnessing his stepfather killing a man. No one believers the kid, he always lies, so it's hard to keep track of his truths. ... Read More

This was a decent thriller with good-guy "Frank Morrison" (John Travolta) trying to save his former family from the dangerous new husband. That's not a new theme in Hollywood movies (the dangerous husband) but this is acted well and presented without heavy-handedness. They were smart to keep the story relatively-short, too, at 89 minutes. As a consequence, nothing dragged.
To me, the film would have been more enjoyable had the 12-year-old boy been a nicer kid, but he's an annoying brat. ... Read More

I actually started predicting during the title roll; I even nailed Hudson as the skeptical cop. But when Steve Buscemi shows up ill-dressed for the fancy wedding, I knew exactly where this was going. (No, not a wood-chipper, just stabbed and incinerated.) This isn't really a bad movie, just a waste of time.
