Such a good movie...

I was hooked at the trailer and honestly it was amazing. Furthest thing from a disappoint. It has everything. Tongue in cheek humor but constant movement and progression. The ending is truly fantastic and you cannot help but fall in love with the characters and their platonic (and other's romantic) love for each other. Every actor brought their A game and Julia Roberts conveyed so much emotion that I felt chills. What can I say about Chiwetel, you can't help but love him! If you love mystery thrillers then put this at the top of your queue because it will more than fulfill your craving! 😀

You should really watch the original Argentine version. It's way better.

I also like this american version, even more than original. I find that the intrigue works much better in this case, when one of the detectives involved in tragedy. Julia Roberts' acting brings so much pain in the character's spirit. I like the cast so much, you really begin to love characters in the end.

Yeah...having the main detective/character be personally tied to victim's family made the ensuing quest much more personal.

Incredible performance by her. Soon after the discovery when she asks Chiwetel's character where they are...you can believe that she is just that disoriented from the sheer grief.

Yeah...by the end of it all you just want them to be happy. 

Excellent cast. Excellent movie.
