Great concept, talent was there, just didn't come together for me
Too many elements were a bit quirky. I thought the delivery throughout was unnatural. It was pretty consistent across actors, so I'd put that on the director going for a sound that didn't work. Some of the elements of Fishburne's character didn't work for me. Langella is awesome as usually, though. I would have liked to have seen more fleshed out like the dual nature of Barkin's character. We don't see enough of it to make her regrets at the end stick.
Other strange bits. I thought Fishburne's makeup[?] was off. His skin looked unnatural for some reason. I don't know enough about how it works to tell exactly what it was, but his skin and hairline looked plastic and fake. The 2nd sex scene between Fishburne and Barkin was really awkward as well. Almost felt Showgirls weird. I thought Fishburne's apartment looked like something from a 60s set showing off color TV; or an episode of the Teletubbies.
Just an "off" movie all around. Did like it though 6/10.
