Matthew Goode and Emily Mortimer co-star in director Woody Allen's thriller.

User Reviews

  • I've got to say it's the best and edgiest film from Woody since Crimes and Misdemeanors. Excellent premise and superb acting, especially by Jonathan Rhys-Meyers and Scarlett Johansson. The film revolves around the choices of newly rich by association, troubled Rhys-Meyers; and how luck can mean the ultimate difference between one life and another.
