 | The Tie that Binds had some good actors in it, Moira Kelley, Daryl Hannah, Vincent Spano, and Keith Carradine and also good was the little girl who played Janey but despite the good actors the movie was awful and I have to agree with the reviewers who said they tried too hard to top The Hand that Rocks the Cradle which is a movie I would recommend instead of The Tie that Binds! |

| Lovely little Julia Devin as Janie, the little girl in this well crafted thriller, is the soul of this movie, and her plight and situation forms the crux of this movie. Director Wesley Strick has added some beautiful visual scenes: a sheet blowing in the wind; fireflies flickering in front of the vacant house; little Janie framed in a window with curtains blowing and a picturesque night sky. Daryl Hannah and Keith Carradine are ominously evil in their roles as Janie's real criminal parents; Vincent Spano and Moira Kelly offer a nice counterpoint to these evil duo and display a strong, nurturing relationship for Janie. There are a couple of plot holes: why didn't they ever find the social worker after her demise? What makes Hannah turn on Carradine? But, as far as this type of thriller goes, THE TIE THAT BINDS is a worthy entry. |

| "The Hand That Rocks the Cradle" was a little better than
"The Tie That Binds" but this movie is a good movie.After a couple break into a house to steal some food for their daughter and the cops show up their little daughter Janie is taken to an orphanage by the Cliftons,a decent couple who don't have any children.Problem is the Cliftons don't know that Janie's parents are outlaws and are trying to find her and will stop at nothing to do so.Even if they have to kill everyone they know to do it.
The movie has pretty good performances by Daryl Hannah and Keith Carradine.Don't listen to the other reviews on the internet,this is a pretty good movie.B for the movie,B for the acting.Enjoy!!! |

| I watched it coz it wasfrom the same maker(s) of "The hand that rocks the cradle" & I had high expectations. All I can say is it's no near to that movie & this film is such a disappointment. |
| Rating | | | Date | October 28, 1999 | | Summary | Watch it for Vincent Spano | Content
| Thrills, suspense, violence...All this with a sweet undertone of an innocent child. Carradine and Hannah played two psychotic killers...a great stretch for their normal roles. They were both convincingly scary, and I wouldn't want to come across them in the middle of the night. Sour story of spree killing. Not recommended for young children. If you love Vincent Spano, he does an excellent job in this movie. I watched this movie because he was in it. He gets 100 stars from me. |
