PLOT SUMMARY

As his hi-tech electronics company prepares to merge with a rival, Tom Sanders is dismayed to hear that his hoped for promotion is being given instead to a female colleague, Meredith Johnson who he'd briefly had an affair with many years before. When she tries to resume their relationship, Sanders brings a charge of sexual harassment against Johnson.

An obvious and unconvincing thriller with SF overtones. Blandly directed and with a script that fails to do Crichton's novel justice, it's a rather coy take on sexual harassment that simply isn't as committed or as daring as it likes to think it is. The genre angle is limited to a virtual reality McGuffin which is simply a techie gimmick to help sell the story and adds nothing at all to the drama.
