I watched this on a lark on Showtime when I got home from work to kill a little time before bed. The description made it sound like an interesting taut thriller. Instead I was subjected to a meandering goofy ill-conceived premise with no meaty plot, but lots of artsy cinema shots.
This movie had that sort of pretentious "if you are smart enough you'll read our minds to get something from this drivel" delivery that I often got in college from overzealous gender-studies or other irrelevant liberal arts classes. You know the ones, they put half a breast on a piece of paper and you're supposed to get that it symbolizes a repressed woman held under a sheet of ice under the Eiffel Tower by Neptune-"how can you not see that? You must be stupid!"
Avoid this unless you REALLY REALLY want to see the actress who plays Grace "grace" you with her pleasant to look at upper half. Be forewarned, you'll have to get through about 3/5 of the movie to get there. Tivo it and fast forward. I'm only giving it a two for the assets you get to see about 3/5 of the way through the movie. Fast-forward is your friend!
