The almost mythic grandeur that Carl Schultz gave to the old-fashioned soap opera of Careful, He Might Hear You would seem, even at the exact same dimensions, rather dwarfed amid the escalating hysteria of this, his first American film. Dead fish by the thousands have washed ashore in Haiti. Ice has blanketed the site of ancient Sodom in the Negev desert. Nicaraguan rivers are running red with blood (yes, yes, but even more than usual). What on earth's going on here? Apocalypse any day now, that's what. Can an expectant mother (the actually pregnant Demi Moore, with a bathing scene to prove it) avert the disaster through sheer faith in the future? It is essential that this sort of thing be completely straight-faced. But it is no less essential that it not actually be serious. Okay on the first count; nokay on the second. Michael Biehn, Jurgen Prochnow. (1988) — Duncan Shepherd
