Robert Pattinson plays a guy who practically lives in his stretch limo. He is a billionaire money manager who can get anything he wants. Except things start going wrong. This has many interesting actors including Juliette Binoche, Sarah Gadon, Juliette Binoche, Samantha Morton, and Jay Baruchel.
David Cronenberg directed this film. He's always been known for an experimental bent on his creations. But instead of his usual visual experimentation, he's trying for something different. It's hard to describe this movie. The best that I can come up with is a run-on sentence. The acting, the dialog are all very mannered. There is very little emotional display from most of the lead actors especially Robert Pattinson, and Sarah Gadon. Before you say something mean-spirited, it's deliberate. The story, the characters just keeps coming and coming without much emotional drama. It get going about an hour in as chaos start to descend on his world. Just because I see Cronenberg is experimenting, it doesn't mean that I think it's a good movie. It's a hard movie to watch. There's very little to grab on to. The experiment is not successful.
