When a young woman is murdered in New

When a young woman is murdered in New York, one of the investigating police officers encounters local teacher “Frannie” (Meg Ryan) in whose garden the body was found and whilst investigating the crime, “Molloy” (Mark Ruffalo) and she start to have an affair. It’s a sexually-charged arrangement but the more she sees him, the more she begins to suspect that his belief in there being a serial killer is correct, but might it actually be “Molloy” who is up to no good? It’s creepily shot and paced, but I’m afraid that a couple of nude scenes and some explicitly dirty chatter don’t really do anywhere near enough to make this film stand out. The plot is derivative; the denouement rushed and aside from Ryan more erotically reprising her famous diner scene from “When Harry…” (1989) there really isn’t a thing memorable about this film at all. Perhaps the more graphic A-lister sex scenes caused more of a stir in the USA, but for those of us brought up on European detective yarns, some brutal serial killing intermingled with some shagging isn’t anything new, innovative or especially compelling to watch. It does look good, but it’s not a very memorable or scary exercise otherwise.

A Plotless, Characterless Movie

I didn't have too high of expectations for this movie, but it still fell well short of my already lowered expectations. None of the characters in this movie were endearing in any way. Now, I like characters who are complex and flawed, but there has to be an appeal in there somewhere. The Franny character (Meg Ryan) was never developed. She character was enigmatic, which is a good start, but the plot never developed anything within that character. I still don't know why she found the detective (Ruffalo) interesting. I thought the character was rude and unappealing. The relationship between Franny and her half-sister, played by Jennifer Jason Leigh, is never fully developed either.The plot, though based on an interesting premise, plodded along much too slowly. Since the character development was lacking, this made for a very boring movie. It's interesting that a serial killer movie with sex and top notch actors can be boring, but it was.Stay away from this dog of a movie. You will do a lot better renting "Basic Instinct" one more time.
