Summary: Male Ego
Review: A very interesting movie about male ego. The two main guys are clashing big time to see who is the coolest guy and who is the leader of the pack. The women they married to became the victims of their egos during the power struggle. Although Mr. Thornton's character is supposed to be very 'zen' but it's obvious that Mr. Cusack's character has his buttons pushed. Very amusing to see in one high pressure working environment, two male 'peacocks' are pitting against each other. :)Mr. Thornton shows his tremendous amount of charm as the zen master Russell Bell. The chemistry between him and Miss Jolie was palpable. No wonder they married each other after finishing this movie. Their characters seem close to their real life characters and any viewer can 'see' what a good match this is! Mr. Cusack is as usual relatable and real as can be. No wonder he commends a royal following among his fans. Miss Blanchette's transformation into a suburban Jersey wife is amazing. Although her fine bone structure and grace speak otherwise (very urban and sophisticated). Miss Vicky Lewis did a fine job portraying a female body builder (gotta see her competition routine). The actors saved this otherwise no-so-memorable movie. It's worth renting. It's worth owning if you are a fan of the actors.
