Great video that is now 15 years old. I'm not a big fan of Banderas but here he did a nice job with Jolie. An entertaining story full of eroticism, trickery and deceit and fun twists. Unfortunately, there are some holes in the plot here and there, but I still had a great time with it. Nice!

As far as I'm concerned, the film is made by Jolie. Banderas is very mediocre, plot means little, atmosphere is otherwise fine. But still I kept looking forward to the next scene, to see Jolie jump off the screen again.

3*

An exciting and erotic thriller. I am not a fan of Angelina Jolie, but in combination with Antonio Banderas she was manageable. Luis hopes for real love and is tricked by Julia. Well, a bit stereotypical, man steps into the trap of a beautiful impostor and falls in it with open eyes. He falls madly in love and keeps hoping for a good outcome for a long time. At some point they become evenly matched and the battle is tense. Until shortly before the end, the outcome could go either way. In the end, they become the perfect cheating couple. Don't expect too much depth (proverbially said), then it's a nice film for a change!
