At the center of this growing mystery is Wyatt, and a plot to take advantage of Jon and his job. This is where everything begins to unravel as far as the movie is concerned. The focus shifts and it immediately becomes less interesting. Do you have any idea how exciting watching an electronic funds transfer is? Trust me, not very, especially after learning of "the list."

If only Mark Bomback had centered his story on "the list" and the case of the missing girl, this could have been an involving thriller, particularly with the cast of players involved and their collective skills. The problems arise early with the Wyatt/Jon interactions; they just do not ring true. There is something phony about them, particularly in how Wyatt approaches Jon; I did not buy it. The problems are compounded the moment they step away from "the list" and into the world of corporate robbery. This shift felt hollow and unnecessary, especially considering the delicious mystery that was building early on. Can you say "frustrating"?

On the positive side, the acting is actually quite good. Ewan McGregor is solid as our central character. Watching him play the nebbish accountant as he unwinds and discovers a different part of himself is quite interesting to watch. Even more interesting than that is watching his interactions with S; the way he acts with her, the way he looks at her, it is some strong work. Playing his opposite is Hugh Jackman, who sinks his teeth into the villainous role. It does not have the subtlety, but it does provide some nice scenery-chewing work for Jackman. Michelle Williams plays the third or our primary trio, and the screen just lights up when she is within the frame. I have not seen much of her work in the past, but she displays some great screen presence. Hopefully this will lead to better things for her.

Bottom line. Frustrating is a good word. The acting is good, the concept of the sex club is intriguing, but when it plays out as an electronic robbery I cannot help but be disappointed in the outcome and frustrated by the potential of the early goings on.

Not Recommended.
