Three interlocking love stories involving three couples in three cities: Rome, Paris, and New York.
Ultimately, this feels like Haggis attempting to emulate Charlie Kaufman, but falling painfully, embarrassingly short, with the end result being almost insultingly smug and self-indulgent. Avoid at all costs.
Any one of the strands expanded alone might have worked better.
If Crash set your teeth on edge, book in at the dentist's before seeing this one.
An interminable illusive boondoggle with clunky turns and a flat, uninspiring reveal.
In its lesser moments, the film seems as banal and manipulative as any afternoon TV soap.
Liam Neeson is a rich and famous writer lounging around in a five-star hotel, while James Franco plays a painter – with preposterous results.
Smartly structured and playful the execution is laboured and unconvincing.
Third Person? Fourth rate!
