Edward Norton plays a convicted arsonist who hopes to get out of prison early by putting to work the seductive talents of his beautiful wife, Lucetta (Milla Jovovich). Robert DeNiro plays the parole officer who is the target of the couple's cat-and-mouse scheming. John Curran (The Painted Veil) directs this subtle psychological thriller based on the play by screenwriter Angus MacLachlan (Junebug).

Thriller
Disappointingly depressing and pointless. I kept waiting for some payoff or twist in the story, and it never came. Milla Jovovich's performance is vaguely entertaining, but doesn't really do anything to improve the film as a whole.
