’, written by Dexter, is the inspiration for this movie. Frankly speaking, few of the scenes were so annoying and embarrassing. There comes a scene where Kidman pisses on Zac to cure a sting, and another scene where she does some sexual acts in a crowded prison. It is so agonizing to see such a high profile perform cheap acts on screen. This movie does not give us a good appeal to our eyes, rather makes us to get uneasy. This movie is narrated from Anita’s point of view, who is the maid working in Jansen family’s home. At times, each of the characters uses different accents, which cannot be understood. The director does not concentrate on one character as a protagonist. Since his previous venture got nominated for Oscar, the expectation on him rose high, and top artists were willing to work in his films. Unfortunately, the sound effects overshadow the dialogues, and the latter gets unnoticed at times.
Verdict:
A useless package of sex, racism, and murder!
