"Two thumbs up!" -Siskel & Ebert
A mysterious drifter lands in a Jersey City fish shop and changes its owners' lives forever in this steamy noir thriller starring Academy Award-nominee Edward James Olmos (1998 Best Actor, Stand and Deliver), Maria Conchita Alonso and Arie Verveen.
Grateful for a chance at life off the street, Nick (Verveen) eagerly helps Jose (Olmos) at the shop and Betty (Alonso) around the house. But emotional entanglements ensue when Nick's role as Joe's "newfound son" competes with his growing desire for Betty. When Joe and Betty's son Danny moves back home and finds Nick installed in his old bedroom, his jealousy and rage explode, exposing the undertow of lust that threatens to tear apart the family and their dreams.

Really Good - sue_z_q
Joe and his wife Betty run a fish market.. One day Nick comes in and they hire Nick to work for them.. Not only that but they invite him to movie into their son's empty room in their home..That turns out to be hat they thought was a good thing , but in the end turns deadly for a few of them...Really good movie, throughly enjoyed it...Nothing Overwhelming - e_j_darko
A decent storyline, which shows why people make some of the wrong? choices we do; such as why the devoted (but still attractive) wife would want to cheat on her husband, to the inflamed reactions of a jealous son.
A slow paced film, but not a snoozer. An honest "drama", with decent performances by all, though the star's enigmatic role was maybe the weakest.
