Negative Positive
Title: Wasted potential
Review: The initial story-telling, and set-up are there - if a bit hackneyed - but it all falls apart into the most predictable and pathetic pay-off. It's an even less plausible "Manchurian Candidate". The sad thing is, there is no doubt good cinematic territory to be exploited from the relationship between the U.S. and the UK of recent. But Mr Polanski reduces it all to the most laughable of far left-wing European conspiracy theories. Snooze. The most entertaining part thus becomes listening to Kim Cattrall fall in and out of her very bad English accent.
Is the review positive or negative?
