Review of Sleuth (2007) by Pourya E — 19 Jun 2009

There are certain plays that should have never been written! Let alone made into movies! And definitely not remade as one! Sleuth is one of them! It tries so hard to be a psychological thriller, but falls flat on its face with an obvious twist and ranting delivered as dialogue! Itâ??s the second time Law plays a role previously played by Caine and itâ??s the second time Caine is in a remake of an old movie of his! It all stinks pretentiousness and trade-elitism, something which Kenneth Branaghâ??s direction manages to add to!
