Bad Company is a 1995 American neo-noir thriller film directed by Damian Harris and written by Ross Thomas.

The film stars Ellen Barkin and Laurence Fishburne as former CIA operatives engaging in a dubious romance while plotting to murder their boss, played by Frank Langella, and take over his firm, which specializes in blackmail and corporate espionage. The film has a supporting cast that includes Michael Beach, David Ogden Stiers, Daniel Hugh Kelly, Spalding Gray, James Hong, and Michael Murphy.

Bad Company would go on to gross just over $3.6 million in a limited theatrical release in the United States. Though the film drew mostly negative reviews from critics, it has since enjoyed lucrative success in the home video market.[1]
