This movie was what it was - a story about a less than honorable person being less than honorable. They show him being vile to people, including an old girlfriend who is doomed to find out he hasn't changed at all. In the end, he makes a decision about his life and his family.
I didn't find anything at all hopeful about this movie. It was pure angst from the minute it began; the music weighing it down more than the script already did. This movie could only be interesting to someone in this type of business in New York. I fell asleep twice. I was hoping to see information about how 9-11 affected companies on the brink, but it never went there. The closest they got was the passing of Aaliyah.
If you enjoy looking at Josh Hartnett's body, you'll be able to get through this film. If not, you may wish you had these two hours back. He was very good at playing the type of character he was asked to play, but the character itself was hideous. Just my opinion.
