REVIEW: DERAILED
Just when you thought it was safe to have an affair, here comes DERAILED, starring Clive Owen & Jennifer Aniston (who is popping up in many movies post-FRIENDS). The two characters must not have seen FATAL ATTRACTION, because they both decide to cheat on their spouses in a seedy motel room. Just before they can seal the deal, a French criminal busts into the room and demands their money. He knocks out Owen and has his way with Aniston. The two agree not to report it to the police and return to their unfulfilling lives. That is, until the criminal begins to call Owen and demand more money. There are several twists and turns from there leading up to the surprise ending. Both actors do a fine job of acting and this is an entertaining movie with a great deal of violence. GRADE: B
