Feels like a decent play- By: jrhartley, 19 Jan 2008 This is a decent enough, easy watch exploring the topic of control & gender in an entertaining fashion, a reworking of the sadly murdered Theo van Gogh film of the same name (Buscemi honours him in the credits & also with the removal van in the early part of the film). The essence of the film is how men, regardless of their own inflated opinions of their intelligence & worldliness, and, despite their better instincts, can't help but be manipulated & wooed by femmes fatales.
There are moments when this film does feel a bit too theatrical, a little over-acted, but overalll, its a classic, two people in a room, character based story which underscores Buscemi's ability as a director & actor & actuallly boosted my opinion of Sienna Miller (albeit coming from a low level).
