This movie is a remake of a French movie called Love Crime. It was in subtitles but if you hate watching movies with subtitles this horrid remake will force you to.
The story is about the rivalry between a manipulative boss of an advertising agency played by Rachael McAdams, and her talented protegee Noomi Rapace (The Original Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) escalates from stealing credit to public humiliation to murder.
The acclaimed Director Brian De Palma (Scareface, Untouchables, Carrie, etc.) takes a stab at rebooting an almost perfect movie.
De Palma has his touch and he tends to extend scenes and tries to build tension similar to Hitchcock but Depalma's touch does not work in this movie and i am not sure it works in this Generation.
He should have stayed away from this movie.
The two female leads are fine but they can't hold a candle to the originals in the French version.
Verdict:
See Love Crimes instead of this rubbish.
