THE STARS
Robert Pattinson, Emilie de Ravin, Pierce Brosnan
THE STORY
Two new lovers (played by Pattinson and de Ravin), each with troubled backgrounds, try to find some sort of hope and happiness in New York.
THE VERDICT
If you thought Robert Pattinson had mastered gloomy in the Twilight films, then this dense and moody romantic drama takes suffocating gloominess to a new level. It relishes its sense of romantic unhappiness, with a dark and gritty New York the perfect backdrop.
There is a moving dramatic twist in the climax that some may see coming… but if you don’t it is impressively wrenching.
FINAL CUT – FOUR STARS
Moody drama has Robert Pattinson on impressive form
