GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

ntsuno I always have been a big fan Stefanie Powers and in this TV movie she gives a great performance. The way she plays two characters is fantastic. I also am looking around to buy this film on DVD and I hope it will be happening soon. Really a great movie.

conniekym I rented this movie not long after it came out, something to watch on a rainy evening. It was unusually compelling, Ms Powers delivers a performance exceeding anything I have seen her do before or since, not simply as she plays two separate roles, but 'involves' the viewer in what she is enacting. I am not a fan, but this movie alone would stop me from disparaging her work. The story moves along at a fair pace with the twists and turns of a much heavier thriller without the necessity for gruesome scenes. I have been trying to buy this movie for 15 years now and the guys that have it are keeping it, and I understand why.

blanche-2 This happens to be one of my favorite "trash wallows" as we used to call these expensive soapers in the '80s. Unfortunately, there aren't the budgets for TV movies that there used to be. Stefanie Powers is in her prime in this dual role of a plain Jane wife of a college teacher and her glamorous jet setting twin sister. The cast includes Sherlock Holmes himself, Jeremy Brett and none other than Gina Lollabrigida. Part of the movie takes place in Venice and it's glorious!Deceptions embodies a certain '80s decadence for me - I love the scene on the yacht where all these hedonists are dancing to the Pointer Sisters. But my favorite is the night of the twins' birthday, celebrated in an Italian villa, where they dance to "Don't Let it Stop" and the shy sister starts to really get into it, juxtaposed against some nefarious doings outside the villa. It's great fun.

Jools-10 Some might call this made for television movie corny or boring but I really enjoyed it! I first saw this in 1985 and again about a year ago and to me it was still the same. The story is one of the twins is married with two children a boy and a girl and is really mousey and bored of her life. Her twin is the total opposite she is the life and soul of the party has many lovers and her own business but she to is not happy. So they meet in Venice for a big birthday party and decide to swap lives for a short time and you guessed it they are not able to swap back at the given time so they have to be each other for a little bit longer. I don't want to give away the plot but if you have nothing to do and this is on television one night give it ago!
