LAST NIGHT




Drama

PRINCIPAL CAST MEMBERS
Keira Knightley: Joanna Reed, a writer
Sam Worthington: her real estate husband Michael
Eva Mendes: Laura, one of Michael’s colleagues
Guillaume Canet: Alex, one of Joanna’s old loves

REVIEW
Any movie about married Manhattan yuppies has the potential to be entertaining but not this one: instead we have to slog through what is essentially a tedious marital morality play about the important role of trust and commitment.

It moves at a snail’s pace but once the scene is set the interlacing of the two couples serves only to titillate. After a while I realized I did not really care how it turned out, so I left.

CLASSIFICATION
some strong language and one scene in wet underwear.

FOR NITPICKERS ONLY
While preparing breakfast Michael does not touch the milk carton on the counter yet it changes position from one scene to another.
