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. 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. (**) Another in the continuing expanding library of erotic thrillers starring Canadian Shannon Tweed. I can't remember the plot but Tweed - by 1997 the executive producer of this tale of a DEA team - manages to get some other girls to do most of the stripping. She does though get a brief shower scene (it's in the contract) and a short time from the end her famous beach ball breasts get kissed and she moves slowly up and down in some guy's lap. What a turn on.
