When an escort girl is found murdered in the offices of the Nakamoto corporation, the police department employs the help of John Connor (Sean Connery), who is an expert in Japanese culture. The unusual premise is captivating for five minutes, but this is ultimately just a dull and predictable whodunnit. Based on a Michael Crichton novel.
