I really thought this would be the first film I'd miss out on but thankfully someone answered my prayers. The problem was that it left my theater after two weeks and the second week only had two showings.
Anyway, this is a remake of a film based on a broadway show. I haven't seen the original source material but I can bet it didn't contain a sex theme like this one.
The main problem with the film is that it assumed the audience is dumb and with a title like Deception one should feel deceived throughout the run time. That isn't the case and while there are twists and turns, the film rarely surprises as everything is so predictable.
The only saving grace is the cast but I'm a big fanboy of Hugh Jackman and I watch anything he does. But still I'm going to have to say pass on this title in the theater and on video as it isn't worth the time. maybe when it's on basic tv for free you can give it a glance but otherwise avoid this one.
Entertainment Value - 1/5
Movie - 1/2 / 5
