just OK

Rating: 5/10 (6 January 2006)

While I found this movie somewhat entertaining... Julia Roberts performance was mystifyingly bad.... beyond that I like to have a plot that is somewhat believable... but the circumstances that bring these 4 people together is somewhat suspect.... nonetheless... Clive Owen and Natalie Portman hit their marks and Jude Law is close.... It was just hard to comprehend the attraction of these people to each other... if that had come through better it would have made much more sense.... the plot would have come together better had someone besides Julia been cast... she just didn't come across as that desirable by either fellow... she seemed sullen and wronged through the whole movie...never a prize that both these men clamored for...it must have just been a marketing move by the movie execs because she seemed so depressed the whole movie and never desirable!
