I haven’t seen such a stupidly made film in a long time. It’s proof that even a good director and good actors can appear in a shitty movie of the lowest caliber that doesn’t make any sense.

Just about everything about this movie is wrong – starting with the lousy acting performances and ending with similarly lousy directing. The dialogue deserves special mention; you’d have a hard time finding something as dumb and illogical. I couldn’t think of anything nice to say about this piece of crap. To borrow the title of a Metallica song: It’s “Sad but True”.

A mismatch of action, romance, and a peculiar atmosphere set in rainy Paris, where you don't know who is good and who is bad, with a disappointing finale – the worst thing the film offers. Not even Thandie Newton's charms can elevate this film to an average B-movie. It's unbelievable how the masterful and imaginative Jonathan Demme (Silence of The Lambs) has declined in productivity, and after more than a decade can descend from a demonically and brilliantly written thriller to a dull and completely unengaging run-of-the-mill film, where the star-studded cast doesn't automatically equal a solid viewing experience. The opening credits are inventive, the music is relatively well chosen, but the rest is not worth talking about.
