Plot Summary: Revolution Studios' sexy
thriller "Perfect Stranger" asks the question: how far would you go to keep a
secret? When investigative reporter Rowena Price (Halle Berry) learns that her
friend's murder might be connected to powerful ad executive Harrison Hill (Bruce
Willis), she goes undercover with the help of her associate, Miles Hailey
(Giovanni Ribisi). Posing as Katherine, a temp at Hill's agency, and Veronica, a
girl Hill flirts with online, Rowena surrounds her prey from all sides, only to
discover that she isn't the only one changing identities. The closer Rowena gets
to finding the truth, the more we see how far people will go to protect it.

Review
Much
of the film takes place in computer chats, with an instant-message
box taking up most of the screen, and Berry and Willis
reading every line for those of us who are illiterate Phil Villareal: Arizona Daily Star
There's nothing in the movie "Perfect Stranger" as
entertaining as Balki Bartokomous, the bumbling immigrant
from the fictional island of Mipos in the sitcom "Perfect
Strangers" (1986-1993)....more
What
would happen if a late-night, D-grade direct-to-cable
thriller excised all of the raunchily enjoyable elements and
managed to attract an A-list cast? The result might be
shockingly like Perfect Stranger James Berardinelli: Reelviews
Both lead actors are clearly on hand to earn a paycheck.
Bruce Willis is marking time waiting for his next
opportunity to die hard. He gets to glare a lot and throw a
guy around, but that's pretty much the sum total of his
performance. Halle Berry mails it in. She looks great but
plays such a bitch that it's easy to stop caring about her
ten minutes into the film. (This is not, I'm sure, what
director James Foley was aiming for.) Those hoping for a
Swordfish moment will be disappointed. Berry keeps
everything under wraps or below the camera line...more
