John Travolta is a simple guy named Frank, a recovering alcoholic struggling to maintain the family shipbuilding business his great grandfather started. Now that his ex-wife Susan...
more...(Teri Polo) divorced him, his son Danny (Matt O'Leary) is constantly at the police station for one problem or another. So when Susan marries charming Rick (Vince Vaughn), Frank thinks he will provide the financial stability that Danny needs to clean up his act. Then, a mysterious Ray (Steve Buscemi) rolls into town and claims to be an old friend of Rick's. But Rick tells a different story, making Frank wary of them both. When Ray suddenly disappears, Danny claims that he witnessed Rick murder him. Susan thinks it's just another one of Danny's lies, but Frank isn't so sure. He investigates Rick's background and finds that Rick isn't at all what he appears to be. Director Harold Becker (SEA OF LOVE) delivers thrills and melodrama and the film is like a dreaming dog--quietly still, punctured by jolts of movement. Vaughn is subtly menacing and Travolta is as affable as a retriever, but it's Buscemi who really lights up the screen with a sleazy wariness that is hilarious.

Domestic Dullness
Review of Domestic Disturbance (Wide Screen) by wampyrii

Advantages: nope
Disadvantages: dull, boring, derivative and lazy

Domestic Disturbance is yet another in a long line of 'enemy within' style thrillers. Taking an idyllic family situation and then shoving someone corrupt into the middle of it all has been staple fare for movie makers for years, crossing many genres and usually, it has to be said, resulting in monumental box office flops. Every "The Hand That Rocks The Cradle" has 10, 20, 30+ straight to video releases of the same type and style and it is a shame ... Read review

How long to cremate a body? - Domestic Disturbance
Review of Domestic Disturbance (Wide Screen) by etala

Advantages: Has it moments
Disadvantages: More plot holes than a leaky bucket!

"Domestic Disturbance" is your standard thriller fare and due to one extremely unfortunately gaping hole in the plot it fails to deliver the impact that perhaps it should. Frank Morrison is obviously a great dad, he has a lovely close relationship with his son, Danny and he's still on good terms with his ex-wife Susan. So quite why she divorced him is a little puzzling to begin with. Anyway Susan is getting remarried to handsome and successful businessman ... Read review
