Now, this is a film in which the critics, I thought, underrated. It's one of the better films that I've seen this year. It stars Johnny Depp as Frank, an American tourist visiting Italy after he loses his wife, and Angelina Jolie as Elise, a woman who is wanted by the Scotland Yard and deliberately introduces herself to Frank and gets him involved in the situation.
This really was a great movie! The acting was superb and so was the writing. The story was not too unbelievable where it would alienate the audience. The film had great character development and did a good job at knowing how the audience thinks so to leave nothing to confusion. It was light on its feet and never took itself too seriously. The chemistry could have been a bit better between the two leads, but it was still one of my favorite films of the year.
Overall Grade: A+
