646f9e108c FBI agent Cara Landry is sent on an undercover assignment to gather evidence on Damian Medina, a Mexican casino owner running a counterfeiting operation for the Cali drug cartel. With virtually no backup, Cara's only way to accomplish her mission, and stay alive, is lure Medina into a false sense of security and stay a step ahead of his suspicious underlings. Shannon Tweed is Cara, an FBI agent who kills a kid by accident within the first 5 minutes, broods in it a full 5 minutes before going on an undercover job to bust a counterfit operation. I keep hoping that if I see enough Skinamax-type movies, that I'll find a diamond in the rough. Alas, this film is NOT that diamond. Not even enough sex scenes to keep you awake through this dreck. My Grade: D-<br/><br/>Where i saw it: TMC-on-demand<br/><br/>INSTEAD of this watch: "Hard Hunted" or ANY Andy Sidaris movie The more you want to see Shannon Tweed in an action role (as opposed to a strictly seduce-the-men-and-take-your-clothes-off role), the more you are likely to enjoy "Naked Lies". Tweed proves once again that she is quite adept at handling martial arts scenes, and even if her face shows signs of aging, her body is still in great shape for a woman in her forties. The film is competently made (especially for a DTV project) and well-produced, shot on scenic Mexican locations. The main problems are the often slow pace, some gratuitous sex scenes (it's supposed to be an action thriller, not an erotic one….I think), and a disappointingly actionless climax. (**)
