No spoilers here, so read on.
I found this completely riveting to watch. And with great performances from all of the players. And at some point I like the framing, the tightening up slowly on character's faces. I'm n0t sure if Mike Nichols is a trendy director, but I do know he is a veteran and I enjoy his previous works that I've seen. But I guess it only does get trendy if he starts using the rack-focus, and I don't seem to remember that being used in the movie.
Very entertaining. Especially the chatroom exchange between Larry and Dan, and the ultimate payoff, it is foreshadowed but very subtly in the beginning. A nice little twist in the end. Although why the character did it? Never quite clear what her motives were for doing it, but you'll know what I mean when you see the film.
It's worth watching. If n0t, a rental....
