Review of Derailed (2002) by Doctor S — 15 Sep 2011
Huge split between fans & critics on this and I can see exactly why. For the casual viewer, this might take some interesting twists, but the seasoned filmgoer can read it like a roadmap. The plot is strictly linear and told in a conventional Hollywood manner.
Clive Owen is solid once again as an earnest (but maddeningly stupid) executive who regrets his mistakes and will do anything to correct them, however Jennifer Aniston is a little hollow and occupies less than half the screen time Clive receives.
Melissa George is always an asset though.
