Deception

I saw Deception on a cold and wet afternoon last Thursday.

Ewan McGregor is a shy auditor who is befriended by Hugh Jackman, a legal executive. Jackman exposes McGregor to the high life but is this all that it seems? "D'oh" do I hear you say; after all the movie is called Deception.

I suspect this movie was produced by a training consultancy intent on forcing its clients outside of their comfort zones. The three main actors all portray characters quite different from their stereotypes. The composer who has an Indian sounding name has composed an Indian sounding musical score for a storyline set entirely in New York and Madrid. Go figure.

This movie is adequate for a cold wet afternoon when nothing better entices but it is instantly forgettable afterwards. Indeed I did forget to write it up on the night, hence this posting two days later.
