Heather Graham Is an Excellent Actress and Does not Need to Be Exposed Naked So Many Times, Like in This Predictable Movie
13 March 2004
Alice (Heather Graham) is an American website designer living in London with the engineer Jake (Jason Hughes). Their life is a routine, they love each other and Jake wants to marry her. One morning, while going to her work, she meets the climber Adam (Joseph Fiennes), and immediately they have a great sex, feeling lust for each other. A couple of days later, Alice decides to leave Jake and meets Adam's sister Deborah (Natascha McElhone), and they become friends. Then, Adam and Alice are in love for each other and decide to get married. While living together, Alice receives some anonymous letters and realizes that she does not know anything about Adam's past, and she suspects he killed his former girlfriends. This erotic thriller has a very predictable end. I do not understand why Heather Graham accepted such a role. She is an excellent actress and does not need to undress so many times like along in this film. I hate the idiot face of Joseph Fiennes, who looks like the horrible Christopher Lambert, only younger. The plot is very predictable: how many thrillers show a woman who meets a guy, fall in love with him and then realizes that he is a psycho, maniac, killer etc.? I indeed was very disappointed and expected much more from Heather Graham and Natascha McElhone. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): `Mata-me de Prazer' (`Kill me of Pleasure')
