This had the making of an excellent film, but ends up being totally confusing. Rather than being the thinking man's "Groundhog Day" in which the lead character gets better and better at everything he does through infinite practice, we see here a bloke who claims to have had a billion lovers and to have travelled extensively backing it up with very little. Like the Bill Murray character in the 1993 comedy, he is pursuing one woman, but that is where the similarity ends. In fact, the film begins with his murder, and it ends with, well, yes, he was definitely murdered, but have we been watching a murder hunt, an astral adventure, or a dream sequence for the past ninety minutes? The film has a decent soundtrack, but when you've said that, you've said it all.
