It's hard to know where to start!
This is billed as as a seductive thriller. The only real problem with that is that there is no seduction and nothing thrilling. Rather, it is deathly boring from the first scene to the last.
It is hard to say whether Justin Long is acting incredibly well or just doesn't want to be there. He is incredibly likeable in everything I've seen him in but I'm this film you can easily hate him for a multitude of reasons.
Kate Bosworth, as ever, gives an incredibly wooden performance whilst also looking like a plank of wood. She is being sold as the beautiful siren, yet in a film that only features three women she is easily the least attractive by a significant margin. She should refuse to ever work with the stylist and wardrobe department again.
What really let's this film down though is revealing so early on that Kate Bosworth's character is Mina Murray. Anyone who has read Dracula knows exactly who Mina is. Knowing that is like being given the worlds biggest spoiler. You instantly know the whole plot, if you can even call it a plot.
Please, I implore you, if you were involved in this film, get a different job.
