Paul Bettany saves this film
The use of two actors to play the same character didn't work and from I've read elsewhere was possibly a cynical marketing ploy. The best parts of the film were those when Bettany was on screen. He was not only a gangster but monstrous. As Karen remarks he has something ugly eating away inside of him and this is what we get to see.
It's a pity really as the cast were good, effective use of music and scene settings. The idea was brilliant too. Wish they'd pulled it off.
