Banal and predictable movie, betraying the novel in many ways. Everybody miscasted. Seigner is a Beauty with just one expression, also while "flying". Depp seems to be interested more in his CV (acting with RP) than in the production itself. Langella and Olin look as grotesque caricatures of their characters. The "Evil Reunion" at the castle is laughable... In short, Polansky at his worst (think of "Rosemary's Baby" instead !). Not to mention "the end" !!!
