The film has story by Brian De Palma "Carrie," "Mission: Impossible" or "The incorruptibles" some real highlights to thank. His on-erotisiertes mystery piece "Femme Fatale" is because, unfortunately, only one case every knee deep Pointe, while chic and shiny comes along, after 22 clock but no one alive can.
This is actually really great release when Rebecca Romijn ( "X-Men") in the role of lascivious Laure Ash at the Cannes Film Festival as a smooth jewel thief tries. The ensuing confusion of a false identity and unemployed Paparazzi Nicolas Bardo (Antonio Banderas), the tension built up initially, but quickly verplätschern. Thus, the strip is technically interesting, the De Palma once again as a style of his great study model Alfred Hitchcock wants to get a movie, unfortunately for incidentally.

Between the little convincing Director of learned cameraman Gerry Lively, a lousy script and many steifbeiniger "action" scenes, it creates only silence Mr Chazz Palminteri ( "The usual suspects"), the sailing time in the wind to rotate. The bottom line remains, unfortunately, only a representative of the borderline group "from the brain, Chipstüte to" left, obviously with a few postcard views of the shooting Barcelona compensated.
