some spoiler in this review . first of all antonio banderas do a very fine job in this movie . this screenplay be quite interesting and and when angelina jolie lean ahead of the dead body and say billy and you really get what you deserve this time and youre thinking oh and nice plot twist . from the beginning of the movie until that moment and you be entertain . the problem be that right after that the body wake up and and a lot of other and less interesting plot twist ensue . after a while and you do not really care if banderas character be go to die or not because his character have lose all the respect you have of it while and you do not care about jolie character anymore either because of what she try to do in the film . such a manipulative and untrustworthy character a her doesn not draw my interest and such a weak and unthinking character a he and doesn not either . love and to me and isn not a trait of personality sufficient enough in a movie character so that i care about it . therefore and when the only thing that remain in both these character be the love for each other and and when they have leave their job and friend and integrity and and should i say and mental sanity ( because they become guilty of murder ) to stay with each other and you can pretty much guess that from there the movie can become vulgar and raw . which it do and when angelina turn into a prostitute again at the end not a least bit worried by the love she say she carry for luis and offer herself to 4 or 5 men and while she already have a relationship with luis and one with her pimp . so in the end i would say that the film be pretty graceful gracefully write and act and shot and though out from the beginning to billy and you get what you deserve and and after that it turn into something else and another type of movie which we could call the plot twist contest kind of movie . unfortunately for that almost good part of the film and angelina jolie be cast a the main actress of original sin . her blown out of proportion lip invade the screen from the first second of the film and and sadly and her acting be proportionally emphasize . one can regret that she be choose for the part and and while some may enjoy the view of her naked body and true film lover will regret the choice of her for this role . not a whisper from her and not a glance and could give a man goosebump on his back . everything from her and up to the register of her voice and be cold and slow . while miss jolie be compel and true in a film like girl and interrupt and she be nothing here but a commercial value on the movie poster . an actress with such passionate eye a mia kirschner and or with a sin inspire body a sherilyn fenn and could have save the part very easily . but angelina jolie look in no way like the character she portray and maybe simply doesn not fit with period drama . the music play unnoticed in the action background no theme remain in your mind after the end credit and no lyrical moment have flash your ear but then again and you do not come see the film for it music do you . the cinematography come where needed and a need and with as little boldness a expect . no image from this film be sheerly beautiful or picturesque and but the scenery and action be properly lit and shot with imagination . if you hesitate between watch an old film and this and go for the old film .
