Dieser Thriller von Joseph Ruben (True Believer) aus dem Jahr 1991 funktioniert bis zu einem gewissen Grad: Julia Roberts spielt eine misshandelte Frau, die ihren Tod vortäuscht und unter einer anderen Identität in Iowa neu beginnt. Ihr psychopathischer Ehemann (Patrick Bergin) findet es heraus und verfolgt sie und ihren neuen Freund (Kevin Anderson). Der beste Teil des Films ist die stimmungsvolle Isolation von Roberts‘ Leben mit Bergin. Ruben steckt die Geschichte auf geniale Weise ab, indem er ein scheinbar ideales Leben zwischen den beiden darstellt – ein schönes Haus am Meer, ein scheinbar gesundes Sexualleben usw. – und dann, whammo! Wichtig für die Handlung, aber weniger interessant ist alles danach, aber das ist weniger ein inhärentes Drehbuchproblem als vielmehr der offensichtliche Druck des Studios, Roberts als süßen Star zu promoten. Es gibt sogar eine Sequenz, in der die Schauspielerin eine Reihe von Hüten anprobiert, während Van Morrisons „Brown Eyed Girl“ auf dem Soundtrack läuft. Solch eindringliche Valentinsgrüße an Roberts zerstören den größten Teil von Rubens Schwung und die Glaubwürdigkeit des Films, und das Projekt erholt sich nie wieder ganz. --Tom Keogh

Great website – Item in Perfect Condition, Worth the Wait
I ordered a Funko Pop + Tee set from Yachew and had a great experience overall. The item arrived in perfect condition — clean packaging, no damage, and exactly as described. As a collector, I really appreciate when things are handled with care, and this definitely was.
Although the order arrived about a week later than expected, it wasn’t a big deal to me. What stood out most was Yachew’s quick and helpful communication. I had a couple of enquiries along the way, and they responded promptly and professionally, which gave me peace of mind while waiting.
All in all, I’m very happy with the purchase and the customer service. I’d definitely buy from Yachew again — highly recommended!
