Movie review
From Time Out New York
One twist too many undermines this stylish mystery about a woman with a dark past and the two men—including a gorgeous, compulsive videographer (García Bernal)—competing for her affections. You can't explain more without spoiling this film's raison d'être, so suffice it to say that there's more to the apparently classic love triangle than meets the eye. Unfortunately, there's no real sizzle between the leads; it's not easy to make García Bernal seem uncharismatic, but Parkhill manages—and it's hard to get emotionally attached to rain-slicked alleys, no matter how gorgeously photographed they may be.Author: MM
