Query: Big budget -- big disappointment

The previews were much better than the film. It gave the illusion of a mystery-thriller. This is by far the worst use of talent, money and direction. This movie ambled along & ended up no where. I agree with a previous reviewer in that Penelope Cruz is not good at all in this film. Her dialog is completely reactionary and her character doesn't have one original thought. She just looks good and is there for the men in the film to drool over.This has made my list of worst films ever. I give it one star only because is was filmed well and the soundtrack was interesting.I am only glad I saw it on cable and didn't pay for it in the theater. At least I was able to do my nails during the film, so not all was lost.
