"China Moon" is a very good movie...at least if you've never seen "Body Heat". If you have, then you'll likely notice that the two films are practically the same in so many ways...too many. Both films involve a femme fatale getting their lover to help them kill their rich husbands. Both films are set in Florida. Both involve a lover who works with the court (in "Body Heat", he's a lawyer and in "China Moon", he's a cop). Both end up leaving the lover as the fall guy. And, both have nudity and violence so they probably aren't great films to show your kids.
For the most part, "Body Heat" is a better film. However, I did really like Ed Harris in "China Moon" as the lover...he did a great job, as you'd expect.
