Suspect

Movie: Suspect
Year: 1987
Date Watched: Thursday, September 3
Top Stars: Cher, Dennis Quaid, Eddie Sanger, Liam Neeson, John Mahoney
Recommendation: Yes. Cher plays a believable role as a lonely public defense attorney who suddenly stumbles on a case with some dark turns that slowly unravel. The finish of the movie comes out of nowhere, almost like a 25-minute pro wrestling match that ends with a sudden run-in by the ring announcer to end the match. Dennis Quaid is fun to watch hob-nob with Washington politicos before getting involved with Cher, who surpassed my expectations in this movie as an actor. Good movie that will keep you thinking, but possibly leave you frustrated at the end.
