Jade is a respectable thriller that starts off full of promise, under the skillful direction of William Friedkin. However, the movie also has screenwriter Joe Eszterhas who once again goes for his own particular style of erotic thriller, such as his successful movie Basic Instinct. In fact, this movie has a fairly ordinary "murder mystery" storyline, but the plot, unfortunately, fails to establish itself as a believable movie, let alone enhance the audience's experience with some surprise or innovation. Director Friedkin was able to spice up the movie with at least a few suspenseful scenes and stylishly shot action, however, all his efforts end up in vain at the very last minute, because the ending looks like the screenwriter wrote a conclusion that was only one of several alternative endings he came up with and lacks all credibility.

I belong to a small group of people who actually quite liked this crime thriller. Although it has routine direction and the male roles are routine portrayals, I had no problem with the script and at times I even felt tension. Good camera work, several car chases that vaguely reminded me of the famous Bullitt case, seductive actresses, and an acceptable plot. A strong three stars, overall impression: 65%.
