Sacrifice Reviews: Great Movie:-)  2006-04-24 - I have this movie both on VHS & DVD & I must tell you it is darn good...I don't know what these other viewers are complaining for, because this movie follows true to the book on these actually killings...I personally love Michael Madsen & this movie just goes to show you that he can play any role given to him...A must buy for any Michael Madsen fan & even if your not, it's still a GREAT MOVIE:0)...
Boring. Slow. Silly. Full Of Holes.  2005-10-29 - A bad story idea poorly executed. I do not know how the director managed to coax such a reasonable cast into performing in this inconsistency-laden yawn-fest but one may only assume that hard cash dollars were involved :) The story is so full of holes as to lead you to wonder what the hell is going on.. How does Jamie Luner's character, Naomi, manage to spend so much time with the escaped con, Tyler Pierce (played in lacklustre-style by Michael Madsen) when her other half has threatened to kill Pierce and has seen Pierce and Naomi plotting behind his back? Why does the Naomi character leave herself open to attack by the clinic nurse who is obviously involved in the killings? Why did none of the psychotic nurse's colleagues spot that it was obviously her local patients who were being killed? As shallow as a woodland grave, I'd steer well clear if I were you.
SLOW MOVING AND PREDICTABLE  2004-12-11 - SACRIFICE is another entry in the cache of director Mark L. Lester. Michael Madsen once again tries his Bruce Willis imitation, and although he's a little more effective than usual, his weak performance drags the film down a good bit. Bokeem Woodbine offers little in his role as the frustrated FBI agent; Jamie Luner is luminous but does some pretty stupid things in the movie; Deborah Shelton (Body Double, Dallas) portrays Masden's ex-wife and though I've always enjoyed both her beauty and skill, neither is evident in this whiny role. The movie is slow moving and little suspense is introduced or maintained. It could have a lot more impact with better performances and direction.
Rent don't buy. Movie about an anti-abortion serial killer  2004-12-08 - Jamie Luner sublimely transcends another bad movie. Otherwise,
there's nothing to recommend it. Summaries you may read are
inaccurate. For example: "The daughter of an ex-con
becomes the latest victim to a serial killer eluding the FBI. Her
father and boyfriend join together to track the killer." Wrong,
the boyfriend is hardly involved.
The story takes place entirely against the background
of abortion. There's some bad acting (the drug dealer in
particular) and characters act in unlikely ways. Why doesn't
Naomi yell out when she has the chance? Why does Namoi have so much free time?
Also, abortion clinics are usually very careful whom they
employ.
5 stars for madsen  2000-12-15 - This is flick is alright for two reasons: mr. madsen and the fact that it was filmed in my hometown.The film does strike an erie tone at the end when the killer tells (his or her) reasons for killing the victims, but it could have been better.The movie looks better than it should, but it needed a stronger story.not a bad film if you like the star.
