eh... they're both thrillers with twists at the end, but they're not really all that alike. i guess that they both involve love triangles and murder, but for completely different reasons. i guess i didn't really think about them being alike, but if you liked matchpoint, definately see dot the i.

Matchpoint- clever and cynical
Dot The I- the same for 80 minutes. Then its like ANY cheesy hopllywood disaster in the last 10. Gutted. I was gonna give htis a very veyr rare 10 til the 80th...

Match Point was well-directed, well-acted (especially by Jonathan Rhys Meyers), and well-photographed. This film was none of these. I suppose Gael Garcia Bernal was fine, but the rest were terrible. The storyline was convoluted and nonsensical, and it was a sheer waste of talent by Tom Hardy and Charlie Cox.

Regarding Bernal's accent, at times he sounded British but then he'd sound Spanish--that deterred from his performance.

The lead actress reminded me of Penelope Cruz in looks, but without Cruz's immense talent.

Really this film was pretty laughable.
