Maybe even the worst. I watched this film a few weeks ago. I wish I didn't. I was actually really excited because I am a huge fan of Malcolm and I do enjoy watching Hugh Grant(though not a real fan). I was so disappointed. Half the time I didn't know what was going on, the rest of the time I tried to figure out how long it was until it was finished. I was even more confused at the end. It was so bad I had to laugh and just ask "Was that it? What? How? Why?" during the credits. I was always hoping for it to be more exciting, but nothing ever happened. The cinematography, directing and editing was just awful. There was no real story and you end up with more questions afterwards than when you first started the film, and no answers. I had to read about the film later to find out that the character Malcolm plays (simply called "the stranger" in the credits), is actually supposed to be the Devil himself. That made it even more confusing. I am very generous to give it a 2, and it is simply because Malcolm was really looking hot in this one. But that doesn't really help. People say he sunk really low in Caligula, but that was hundred times better than this rubbish. I gave that an 8. For me Night Train to Venice is the lowest Malcolm has sunk thus far (I've seen more than 25 of his films). I wish I never saw it and if I were to see it again, I would simply skip to the shots with Malcolm in. But it is really awful, avoid it at all cost, even if you are a massive fan of either Hugh or Malcolm.
