Negative Positive
Title: Herring, anyone?
Review: This ridiculous attempt at something devious and twisted ends up only tortuous and unnecessarily confusing. A review quoted on the box says, "It will keep you guessing until the very end, and even then you'll be wrong!" Inundated by red herrings, I stopped guessing about halfway through and just waited for the revelation scene which, when it comes, will surprise no one who's ever seen a suspense film, despite the movie's attempts at misdirection. The ending is unbelievably silly (by which I mean both silly and unbelievable). Also unbelievable is that someone who looks like Angelina Jolie would fall for someone who looks like Ethan Hawke. Their love scene is embarrassing...and noisy. Two stars because one is as low as you can go; I save one star for something like an Ed Wood film.
Is the review positive or negative?
