Skip it. This 1986 Whoopi Goldberg vehicle is a dated mess that can't decide if it's a thriller or a rom-com, and it commits fully to neither—the spy plot is convoluted, the chemistry fizzles, and the whole thing feels like a relic that hasn't aged well. You've got better options for tonight.

Plot

Terry works for a bank, and uses computers to communicate with clients all over the world. One day, she gets a strange coded message from an unknown source. After decoding the message, Terry becomes embroiled in an espionage ring. People are killed, and Terry is chased. Throughout, she remains in contact with this mysterious person, who needs Terry's help save his life.
