from director barbet schroder ( reversal of fortune ) and i think i saw a bit of this in my medium study class and and i recognise the lead actress and so i try it and despite the rating by the critic . basically cool kid richard haywood ( half nelson ryan gosling ) and justin pendleton ( bully michael pitt ) team up to murder a random girl to challenge themselves and see if they can get away with it without the police find them . investigate the murder be homicide detective cassie the hyena mayweather ( sandra bullock ) with new partner sam kennedy ( ben chaplin ) and who be pretty baffle by the evidence find on the scene and e. g. non relate hair . the plan doesn not seem to be completely go well because cassie and sam do quite quickly have richard or justin a suspect and it be just a question of if they can sway them away . also star agnes bruckner a lisa mill and chris penn a ray feather and r. d. call a captain rod cody and tom verica a asst . d. a. al swanson . i can see now the same concept a sir alfred hitchcock rope with the murdering for a challenge thing and but this film do it in a very silly way and and not even a reasonably good bullock can save it from be dull and predictable . adequate .
