Ray Koval (Clive Owen) and Claire Stanwick (Julia Roberts) are the main characters of this movie. Their relationship is not clear, but will get clearer during the movie. This picture is simply based one of those secret revealing constructions that are great for close watch. There are so many secrets and so many hidden … that you fell confused from time to time, but luckily this movie is logical from the beginning to the end. Maybe not so interesting as it could be, but well played and well constructed. Maybe the fact that Clive Owen is not one of my favorites this movie got lower ratings from my point of view, but I can’t see anything really good in his acting skills. He is always so stiff and puffed up, and in almost every movie – angry. His only role that convinced me completely was playing Theo Faron in unforgettable Children Of Men.

So, we have here a lot of secrets, interesting plot, action and thrill. And even a little bit of humor. We got every single gradient to achieve great movie. But in my opinion this is not great movie, just fine and done properly production with few interesting actors and nice script. But something is missing here, that spark of magic. Nothing sophisticated.
