6/10
Pretty
27 January 2009
I did want to emphasize that the opening scene is among the most visually stunning I've ever seen in film.

Sadly this made for TV miniseries just doesn't measure up to the opening scene.

It is beautifully photographed and some of the flashbacks are quite good and Mira is as pretty as they come with a dashing leading man.

I've always enjoyed Welsh's performances, a journeyman Canadian actor who does his job no matter where they plug him in.

While it was certainly entertaining compared to the swill in the opposing time slots it wasn't very good.

It may have had one of the tamest "sex scenes" to get a "S" warning for the viewers.

This is a typical predictable film in the lazy "chick flick" genre. Single mom superwoman type. FBI agent sweetie pie opposite.

That said this is a very PRETTY film nice locations lovely costumes and sets.

I gave it a 6 overall because one really has to see that opening sequence, just gave me the chills.

Summary: if you are bored and have lots of popcorn on hand it isn't all that dreadful and Mira is cute as a button.
