No Virtue

Rating: 5/10 (16 January 2007)

Now, I'm an old-fashioned kind of guy. I like movies where the good guy wears a white hat and the bad guy wears a black hat and the good guy gets the girl in the end. So, for reasons obvious to those who have seen this movie, I didn't like this movie. Nobody in this movie has a single virtue. They're all reprehensible. For whom am I supposed to root? The only person character who seemed to have any virtue was the stripper, then SHE turned out to be a sleaze.
I think Natalie Portman and Jude Law are outstanding in their craft. Clive Owen and Roberts also put forth tremendous efforts. I just hated the story. I'm going to dust off my old Gene Autrey movies. If I wanted this kind of drama, I'd just look up and down my own street.
