Plot Summary
Richard Gere and Kim Basinger sizzle in a searing action thriller of passion and murder, "No Mercy." Gere stars as Eddie Jillette, a tough, uncompromising cop whose vow to avenge his partner's death draws him into a torrid affair with the only witness, the murderer's girlfriend. Basinger is the sultry Cajun beauty, Michel, caught in the war between Gere and vicious crimelord, Losado, the man who possesses her. Jillette's vendetta takes him from the streets of Chicago to the violent underworld of New Orleans, where he abducts Michel to flush out Losado. He escapes into the treacherous bayou with his unwilling captive but as their pursuers close in and the danger mounts, so does their lust for each other. Out of time and out of luck, Jillette confronts Losado in an explosive climax where there is... "No Mercy."

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Count me among those who would be happy never to see another starring role for Gere, except maybe as Felix in a remake of The Odd Couple.
Rotten: A standard-issue cop thriller that amounts to Beverly Hills Cop in a bad mood.
Rotten: Pearce pads out his plot with lots of borrowed bits ... but the borrowings don't have any resonance of their own: they simply hang on the story like empty thematic husks.

Worth it
This was a pretty good movie, the ony reason why I didn't give it 5 stars is because it was a little slow going at first, but overall pretty good. You actually do like the main characters in the movie and care about the outcome.
AWSOME!!!!!
That is the best movie ever man!!!!
