It's totally worth watching for Sigourney Weaver and Michael Caine performances; even if at times the plot limps, some scenes are unrealistic or even directed not that well, it's still a good treat.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

This movie is a want to be romantic thriller. If you watch the movie to the end (which I do not recommend as it is a waste of time) you must admit that the scriptwriter could not come up with a good ending and just took the easy path of choosing the obvious ending!

The surprise is that Bob Swaim, who created the polished thriller "La Balance," has directed "Half Moon Street" with 10 thumbs.

The movie is interesting primarily because of the interaction between Weaver and Caine.

The premise is intriguing and the acting is rather good, but the execution is disappointing.
