Good to see, but nothing new..., 5 November 2002
Author: asor_rose from Kazakhstan

This was the film where I saw Heather Graham and Joseph Fiennes first time. Playing Allis and Adam they are beautiful, very stylish, but simple.

That's not the fault of the actors but the script writers and director. Some lines are really out of the story but just to create needless mystery. Adam's sister who accepts at once that her brother is a murderer makes me feel bad about sisters. In the end it is revealed that Adam and his sister had incest when they were "children", and she was his teacher in sexual tricks some of which Adam used with Alice.

The plot is made by the standard Hollywood model. And you know what will be in the end of the film. Hopefully, in the future, writers will find some new ways to develop the plot and make the movie with really fascinating story and unexpected end.
