When he emerged from film school in the mid-1980s, director Phil Joanou was touted as the next Steven Spielberg, perhaps because Spielberg took him on as a protégé briefly. Since then, it's been "Phil who?" thanks to a series of mediocre thrillers like this one. Based on one of a series of novels by James Lee Burke about a troubled ex-cop named Dave Robicheaux, this film sat on the shelf for a couple of years before finally being released in 1995. Alec Baldwin plays Robicheaux, a recovering alcoholic who has put life on the New Orleans police department behind him--until a plane crashes in the lake next to his house. He rescues a young Central American girl from the wreck and adopts her--and winds up involved in a gumbo of drug running and dirty dealing involving an old pal named Bubba. Tip-off that this movie should have gone straight to video: Bubba is played by Eric Roberts. Redeeming feature (at least for men, who are all dogs, as everyone knows): a Teri Hatcher nude scene. --Marshall Fine

I don't know why they made this. I read elsewhere the director split before the movie was done. They just stopped and the producer, who didn't like the director, did the final edit, and it shows. Very poor casting all around. The only good scene was the airplane crash, and that isn't saying much! Probably will go in the trash. Watch "In the Electric Mist" with Tommy Lee Jones instead, if you like James Lee Burke and Dave R.

Some may be surprised at the 5-star rating, but let's be honest, we enjoy most movies for sheer entertainment and escapism, not erudition. And to the contrary, the 'exposure' scene is NOTHING compared to the overall smoking, steamy tenor of this movie that practically drips from the eyes of Ms. Hatcher and Ms. Masterson, who have no trouble inflicting maximum interest with their clothes completely on. Between the lush, bayou atmospheres and the rampant sensuality, you are then left to enjoy a reasonably ... Read More

This film is vastly underrated. This is some of Alec Baldwin's best work and the storyline is riveting. By the way, Miss Fine, all men are not dogs.

I saw the 2009 release, IN THE ELECTRIC MIST, with Tommy Lee Jones & John Goodman BEFORE I saw this film. This one was made in 1995, and you see a very slim Alec Baldwin. Teri Hatcher gives a really quiet, powerful performance as the wife of a 'local bad guy' (Eric Roberts) and more than carries the role. She excels in the time she has on the screen. Poor Ms. Lynch gets offed early on so she isn't around for the ending. I won't tell you how it ends!
Once again the real star is Louisiana. This ... Read More
