Name: Perilous
Genre: Thriller
Duration: 1 h 35 min
Rating: 4.4
Cast: Bruce Boxleitner, Catherine Oxenberg, Dainius Kazlauskas

Though this movie claims to be from 2000, it feels as though it sat in the can for forty years. Everything from the scenery to the background music is straight from one of the first James Bond movies in the 1960's. Even the action scenes, such as they are, are in the 60's style.

The only actor I recognized was Catherine Oxenberg, whose claim to fame is more for being a member of the British royal family than as an actress. We're talking amateur hour. Sadly no one else is any better.

Four stars as a demonstration of how far we've come in movie production over the last forty years. Zero stars for not keeping up with the times. Four stars.

The thriller genre features suspense, tension, and excitement. These stories are known for keeping audiences on the edge of their seats and delivering intense emotional experiences by revolving around high-stakes situations, dangerous conflicts, and the constant anticipation of unexpected events.

A lawyer is on a business trip to St. Petersburg. When a beautiful woman on the run runs into him and asks for help, he is thrown into a dangerous world of jewel thieves and gangsters.
