It's less a movie than a series of seminar notes.

It runs out of steam early on, but not before it has struck some sparks.

Figgis aims for an intellectual, erotic thriller, but what we get is wooden, pretentious and clichéd.

Rated: 1/5

[A] convoluted noir thriller that interweaves a variety of narratives.

In its attempt to educate and involve the audience it unfortunately ends up excluding them.

Aunque Figgis explora temas y territorios que casi se han vuelto clichés creativos, siempre hay algo interesante en su cine. Sea la cinematografía, el manejo sonoro, o en este caso, la química en un par de secuencias entre Koch y Verbeek. Una película experimental en tono absolutamente meta, con un par de guiños de más, pero no obstante, seductora.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
