Editorial Review:
The ex-husband (who's won custody of the kids) of a prison shrink is murdered, causing her to become the prime suspect when the actual murderer is really her former patient. Gorgeous Gina Gershon sets off sparks in this erotically-charged thriller.
Borderline Reviews:
Worth Seeing If You Are A Michael Biehn Fan 
2008-12-09 - I saw this movie once and even though Gina Gershon did ok, I thought Michael Biehn was the better actor. He is 52 years old now (he was born on July 31, 1956 in Anniston, Alabama). I agree with the person who wrote about Gina Gershon's pout. I saw her in the movie "Showgirls" with Elizabeth Berkley and I think she did better in that movie than in any other movie I've seen her in. Michael Biehn plays a cop in Borderline and his character is Gina's character's "lover" (at least thats what it looked like to me when I saw this movie on TV. I gave Borderline 3 stars only because Michael Biehn is in this movie. As soon as I can afford to get it, I'm going to buy this movie to add to my already growing collection of Michael Biehn movies (I'm rebuilding my collection because my original MB collection was stolen a few years ago).
See Borderline for Michael Biehn ...alone
2007-09-10 - I am a BIG fan of Michael Biehn, since I first saw him in "Teminator." Ever since then I look forward to any movie or tv series he is in. Now...as for "Borderline" this is not a great movie. It drags,it is not well written, and some of it...well.....just does not work for me. But...I am adding a star because they(the Producers, etc) had the good brains to have Michael Biehn in it. But his talents are wasted in this part. Not enough of him in the movie to save it, really. I am not a big Gina Gershon fan. I think she needs lots more acting lessons. I get tired of her "pout" and she uses it alot in this movie. As for Sean Patrick Flanery....he needs more acting lessons too. But I cannot fault him too much as his part was not well written at all. Never defined. As a matter of fact, none of the characters are well defined in this movie. You have to guess as to their motives, etc. But I do give it 3 stars and do mildly recommend it and if you are a Michael Biehn fan, like me, then I do recommend your seeing it as one of his latest endeavors. He is getting older....55 plus now, and good parts are hard to find for him.. sad to say. See him in TV Series..."The Magnificent Seven" and you will not be sorry. That is one of the Very Best TV shows I have ever had on DVD. I have both seasons. Sorry they did not make a third or forth as it was Everything that "Borderline" is not. Well written, Well Acted...and Very memorable, even if you are not a western fan. And an added plus...Dale Midkiff. Another underated actor who deserves better movie parts. But did find this TV series, thank goodness.
Gina Gershon had to ownsomeone money! 
2006-06-01 - Gina Gershon is one of the best actresses around now and usually makes really good choices of movies. This one wasn't a good choice. The acting, other than Gina, is horrid - although this isn't one of Gina's shining moments. The writing is so much worse than the acting - a 12 year old could have come up with better lines. The end teases a twist but then takes it away and just ends. There are a few too many loose ends that I would have liked to have seen tied up but we all can't have everything. If you're looking for a good Gina Gershon movieor a good thriller don't pick this one.
GINA AS LOVING MOTHER! 
2006-05-22 - Gina Gershon is my favorite,modern day actress,who is to often given inferior scripts and roles where she usually is cast as a gorgeous, sexy,and (often dangerous)lady.While I certainly don't mind GINA "strutting her stuff",I do wish Hollywood would give her better roles.In "Lies and Whispers" she is smart,touching,and sexy,an oustanding performance,I wish she would be given more multi-dimensional roles.I think she would be GREAT in comedy,which when given the opportunity she delivers tart lines in the best Joan Blondell-Ann Sheridan tradition.
In "Boderline" she is a loving mother of two girls, but is caught in a nasty custody battle with ex-husband,and she has recurring nightmares,from her childhood,which has left her with terrible mental scars.When here ex-husband and his girlfriend are brutally murdered GINA is the number one (1) suspect and put under more mental pressure.GINAs' performance is what raises this film to a 4-star level.She handles her role with tenderness, warmth,and just the right amout of mental anguish.Please, Hollywood do justice to GINAs' talents and give her the roles she (and her fans) deserve.
The supporting cast includes Sean Patrick Flannery,Michael Biehn,and from the original "DAMN YANKEES",Rea Allen,as a symphatic friend of Ginas'is fine.
Excelent movie . Gina Gershon stole the show! 
2004-06-16 - Gina Gershon has never been best. She makes the sixty % in this film. She deserves major opportunities and I expect this film adds the expected desire in future projects.
Sean Patrick Flannery is a young promise and makes a credible role.
The script works out with organical flow . There are innovative situations that keep your attention and hold to your seat. The increasing mistery slowly goes involving you to a satisfactory ending.
The direction is another positive point to remark.
A little gem that might become in a status cult movie . In my opinion this film got it!
