Sketch Artist

1992R89 minutes

A courier (Drew Barrymore) sees a woman fleeing a murder scene, and goes to work with sketch artist Jack Whitfield (Jeff Fahey). But as the picture comes together, Jack discovers to his horror that it's a dead ringer for his own wife (Sean Young), who may have had a motive to kill. His disastrous attempt to fake a new sketch and the sudden death of the original witness turn up the tension in this thriller.

My review

This had a powerful cast and a great premise, but the spaghetti western music mixed with rap was too distracting.  And you walk right in to the predictable ending.   They must have sent out a casting call for every anorexic woman in hollywood.  This movie was too cliche without being campy, and in these days of viewing, you either have to be Speilberg serious, or Rocky Horror camp. 

I recommend you only watch this if there is nothing else to do.
