A 10 but for Jennifer Connelly

Rating: 8/10 (12 January 2002)

This movie was significantly better than I had expected and Russel Crowe does a very good job in the film.
The only drawback is Jennifer Connelly who does her usual emotionally vacant call-in performance. I'm not sure why they continue to hire her, but I can only assume the decision is made by the same people who give James Cameron work.
However, her character is mostly relegated to the background (maybe due to her weak performance) and doesn't detract terribly from the overall quality of the film.
