Cutthroat Island. What they came up with was this repulsive ode to American film noir, based on a script by Shane Black (
Lethal Weapon) about an amnesiac schoolteacher (Davis) who searches for her true identity and finds she is actually a secret agent immersed in a deadly plot to topple the government. Mechanistic in its violence, obnoxious in its attitude, the film makes Davis, a once-promising actress, nothing more than a special effect. She tosses one to sadists in the audience by a! llowing her character to be beaten, punched unconscious, and t! ortured.
