Review of Against all Odds: It appears this film is almost a remake of the classic film noir ” Out of the Past .” Original I, unfortunately , was not looking. But even in this film starring some of the actors from an old Hollywood movie .

The film was given a very not easy, because the first time I almost fell into a coma from the fact that the on-screen action , or not in a hurry , or giperskachkami events unfolded , but it was not visible, and explained all the dialogues . Here is an example – the characters met , they began an affair , the first sex scene , and then a couple of frames with romance and that’s just from the dialogue it is clear that it has been 2 weeks, and after a minute of screen time a month. Then the action started to gain momentum and become more interesting . And accordingly intrigue was growing , because the action of the banal film about the return of the fugitive , he began to grow into the detective line , and with a “set up” , murder conspiracies and corruption . An unusual twist , I admit . And the finale , taken purely ” nuarny .”

As for the style of shooting , the best course authors failed kinds of Mexico , with its diversity – white sand beach with the blue sea or the Mayan pyramids . But that’s where the director was looking at some points , I do not know. Erotic scenes are filmed elegant, but some other scenes are just terrible . A striking example – the scene of a fight in a Mayan pyramid , so carelessly and simulated game , cycling acting trio, just shocking . While most of the actors did not cause the reproach, although commendable , too . Rachel Ward doing nothing , that’s only in the final she showed chic without words. Well, relatively young Bridges and Woods looked very charismatic , but did not play at full strength, and they are better – proven and tested .

What no complaints and the highest points, so for the final song by Phil Collins . It’s beautiful . Knowingly received nominations for “Oscar ” and the ” Golden Globe”.
