Clive Owen meets Jennifer Aniston on a train and they begin a passionate fling. In a hotel room, the pair are attacked by Vincent Cassel (who only seems to play baddies), who then blackmails Clive Owen for money in exchange for not telling his wife about the infidelity. So Clive has to spend his life's savings, put aside to care for his sick daughter...
It’s an enjoyable twist-filled tale, even if it begins to stretch credibility in the final sections. Owen is always charming, and he is excellent with the limited material. Aniston is better than expected – or rather, at least she’s not merely reprising Rachel from Friends.
On the downside there is a silly character played by rapper RZA, and Clive Owen’s wife played by Melissa George is sketchy and unconvincing.
