Who payed the critics

What a beautiful movie!

Highly Overrated But Still Good

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

By and of itself, "Enemies Among Us" is a sprightly and, within its boundaries, tense film. It deals quite adroitly with the issues of international terrorism, political maneuvering, and American political complicity in international nefariousness. Yet the reason to savor it, the cause to exult in it is, as usual, Robin Givens. Although she is not in any sense the star of the picture--indeed, she really and truly doesn't have that many scenes--her role as government interrogator and former cop's wife Gloria genuinely stands out through her free-flowing sexiness, her sizzling intelligence, and her crisp authoritativeness. When she's leading the questioning of her and her colleagues' international soldier/prisoner, her smooth forcefulness and her graceful sex appeal have us riveted to her. When she's on the phone dealing with her uniformed cop ex (Eric Roberts), her sass and her spirit put us immediately on her side. And when she orders that said soldier/prisoner be "terminated"--translation: killed--after five minutes, her beauty and her suavity prevent us from being repulsed. The lady herself has asserted, concerning the quality she seeks in a mate: "I want someone who can handle me. And I'm not the easiest person to handle." Robin Givens's performance in "Enemies Among Us" puts us in a mood to gladly want to attempt to handle her--and to be fully excited regarding the challenge.

The film is an abortion on screen. OMG who wrote this piece of ***t? I have seen these actors in other works and I know that they can act. What happened? The script contains every overused slang phrase of modern speech. The actors deliver lines like they are in a high school play. The worst performance by someone playing a female investigative journalist (she must be sleeping with the producer)I ever seen on screen.Better yet, how did this ever get released? I saw this when I was looking for something to watch on cable that I had not already seen 10xs. I saw the cast Billy Zane--always good--Eric Roberts--always good. Not a chance this time and for god's sake what happened to Steve Bauer? I hope they did it for the money and the money was good.amazing.

***Spoiler Alert***** This movie is by far the worse move in the history of film making. The acting is so contrived that you swore the 'actors' were reading from queue cards. I was so painful to watch as this cast of misfits tried to add feelings and emotions to their lines. The story goes nowhere. Cliché abound. And the action sequences come from the old Batman or Superman TV shows. Remember the villain ducking a good 2 seconds before Batman took a swing? Remember the slowly thrown hand gun at Superman and he ducks? Same things here except for the wacky cartoon bubbles. For the love of all that is holy, this should have been made as a cartoon. No way any competent actors would sign up for this unless they are in if for the money grab. I agree with the other reviewers that the acting was on par with a 10th grade play. A Telemundo soap opera thinks that this movie was over-the-top. Save your $1 for the 99cent burger instead.

I have to agree with the other posters. Watching this movie is one of the worst experiences of my life. The plot goes nowhere, the acting can't be taken seriously, the dialog is ridiculous, the humor is not funny and the action scenes are lame. It feels so long and it runs only 70 minutes. How can someone be proud and put his name on the screen as writer, producer and director for that ? Even Billy Zane and Eric Roberts who made bad movies should be ashamed for doing this one. I hope that people who keep bashing Uwe Boll take a look at this one. They'll know what a really bad movie looks like. That is terrible and I hope the director will stop doing movies and choose to work in another field.
