Fabulous with great twists

Fabulous movie with some really good unexpected twists that can jerk on your emotions. It was definitely worth the watch.

The Platium Boy and the Pole Sisters

Evan Lauker was part of a multi-million-dollar scam in which platinum bars were secretly made and stolen from their place of manufacture. Evan and a couple of confederates now plan to sell them on the black market.

Evan has also been busy on the romantic front. He has two wives, Nicole and Zoe. When he is about to complete his big deal, he fakes his death twice. The two women bond over their "deceased" husband whom they know is a con man. The majority of the film is their search for him in Montreal with assistance from a bounty hunter.

While "Live Once, Die Twice" had good potential for a noirish thriller, the film faltered in the home stretch. After finally locating Evan, Nicole makes the inexplicable choice of forgiving him and believing his lie that he was working under cover for the state department. She makes this decision even after a group of thugs threatened to kill her sister and mother, all because of Evan.

Nicole's blunder inadvertently leads to the death of the kind bounty hunter, Earl "Mac" MacDuff, who was so devoted to the women. More collateral damage comes when Zoe is shot and seriously wounded by Evan.

While the narrative scripting was sloppy, the most intriguing relationship was that of Nicole and Zoe. The latter worked in a strip club where she first met Evan, who went by the name of Luke Ravena. Zoe uses the expression "sisters of the pole" to refer to the camaraderie of women in a strip club.

Nicole thereby becomes an honorary sister, as the two women courageously seek to thwart the thing they share in common: the platinum boy who took both of them for a ride.

Live Once, Die Twice-Don't Die But See this Just Once **1/2

Lifetime films also seem to have that constant common denominator among them. A lot of women often don't realize what they're headed for when they wed. Such is the case with this offbeat thriller.

A fishing trip with a fellow guy turns supposedly tragic when an explosion occurs and it appears that both have been killed.

Imagine when the FBI shows up and informs our widow-Kellie Martin-that her cute husband wasn't what she thought he was. The latter was in the smuggling business. Further revelations reveal a go-go dancer as his second wife and the two women team up to find out what's really going on. They're threatened by the guy who has been ripped off by "their" husband.

In this film, you anticipate some more irony, especially that the team helping the girls are dishonest themselves but this never occurs.

The ending is what is deserved but needed to be more substantive.
