Title: Cliche ridden, predictable and dull
Product review: As a huge Russell Crowe fan I was particularly disappointed by this offering. No character in this movie was completely developed and bits of the plot were left hanging. A little explanation on a few points would have gone a long way toward developing even a single character in this confusing melodrama. As it stands Bridget Fonda spews 40's era cliches and tries to look alluring, while Russell Crowe (who can usually pull off a decent American accent) sounds ridiculous and seems to fall in love with Fonda's character for no reason whatsoever. Even the music is cliche. Sad, not one of the better vehicles for either star.
