I disagree with Berardinelli's review, I didn't find this film very entertaining,. To me it was more like they wanted to make an 'art film' but didn't know how to go about doing it. The movie makers cannot decide whether the film is a comedy, a thriller or something else...
A pity, the cast is phenomenal but nothing transpires, other than Charlize Theron showing how stunningly beautiful she was as a young girl... Not even a great performance by Danny Aiello saves the day. I found mostly the Direction and the script to be sorely lacking. This is basically nothing else but a bunch of (decent) cameos clumsily stitched together to resemble a movie. All things considered, in my opinion this is not worth wasting your time on.
