A Thriller with a hint of Romance and unmistakable intrigue, 11 September 2005
8/10
Author: matt hunter (nylind) from Bridgewater State College, MA

This film showcases the sole reason why it is a shame that Julia Ormond has slowly faded in and out of the international film scene.

Tim Roth plays against his "Mr. Orange" persona very well. Ormond shines as the dentist just trying to do her job, and keep her head over water in a large and dangerous prison population.

Roth and Ormond are great, the setting giving the characters an interesting backdrop to play out a twisted tale of love and trust.

For the characters the love is unexpected, for the film fan the enjoyment is indescribable.

To Julia Ormond your fans want you to take more chances do more films. Roth keep doing what you do best, stealing the show...
