Slow starter - Suspension of Disbelief review by CP Customer
I was very tempted to press the fast forward after 15 minutes of this movie as the early scenes indicated it was going to be one of these over indulgent, arty type films that have little substance but although this is not, in my opinion, a particularly gripping story, it did get more interesting from that time onward and did have a decent storyline which was a new one on me so I would say that overall it is worthy of the three stars. There are also excellent performances from all the lead actors, particularly Lotte Verbeek who oozes seduction from every pore.
