NOT THE BEST I'VE SEEN FROM THIS CAST

I caught this film on DVD over the weekend and thought I would add a few lines on it as it's not bad enough to be relegated to the don't watch, BAD movie bin.

It's an American, corrupt politician, police, good guy being tempted to follow the money not his heart kind of story. It has been done loads of times and I have to say this one didn't bring anything particularly new to the party. No real stand out performances, Crowe plays the corrupt City mayor involved in some bent property deal, Mark Wahlberg an ex cop, turned private investigator gets hired by the Mayor to trail his wfe, Catherine Zeta Jones, who he suspects of having an affair, big twist without giving the game away, not really.

It all turns out surprise, it's all about winning an election campaign and the lengths people will go to to do that, not about who is sleeping with who.

I give this film 5/10. OK crime drama if you've got a couple of hours to kill. Not much else to say about it really, very average.
