Why so much hype?

Tied for the best movie I have ever seen

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

What was the point of this movie? What did we find out more or how did we improve as people? Was the only point that you need to hold and hug your wife after making love to her? There was nothing more to take with me from this time spent. Really disappointing. Even action scenes were boring :(

I advice not to see this film ...5 sex scene ..slow ..stupid ending...not worth seen

I really love Keanu and I was really excided for this movie.I had seen the trailers and it seem a really good thriller film with lots of suspence and with a catchy story.Unfortunately thet only action in the whole film lasted for 3 minutes.The other one hour and a half was filled with unessesary sex scenes (every five minutes there was a full sex scene involving Lucas (Keanu Reeves) and Katya (Ana Ularu)) and Keanu Reeves showing off how well he knows how to speak other languages.I found nothing interesting in this novie and I would definately not recommend it to someone else nor watch it again by myself.This movie (no matter how much I love Keanu and appreciate his work throghout the years) is a big no-no for me.

The film centers on the story of a diamond dealer Lucas Hill, who flies to Russia to run a trade in rare blue diamonds. The film explores (without success) Lucas's struggles to get out of a dubious situation when his contract is compromised. Then he meets Katya (Ana Ularu) and from then on everything spoils, that I felt that the film began to wade. I felt that the romantic tension between the two characters wasn't at the rendez-vous. The chemistry between the actors isn't great, and the scenario is not really enough to develop the first steps of their relationship. I didn't appreciate Romance because of other flaws in character development. When romance sets in, the film forgets its thriller side, it becomes a secondary plot and nothing is done to develop it. There are very tense moments, but these moments never come to nothing, because the diversions of the romantic story cool the tension. At the beginning I was quite intrigued but over time, boredom and disinterestedness settled down, especially since the story of romance became much less interesting and rather simplistic, I mean that the characters don't are touched, that what you learn as you go hasn't the will to explain. The performance of Keanu Reeves is correct in this film. Keanu Reeves is an excellent actor, and despite the fact that he doesn't know how to play Lucas Hill in the movie, Hill's room to grow. Because of this recurring scenario problem, Keanu Reeves doesn't have the usual presence. Ana Ularu in her role is much further down, I have noted an incalculable number of fault, the experience is lacking. Pasha D. Lychnikoff is doing very well, but the screenplay is so far from reality and flat that it doesn't help. It's a film that for the most part is confusing, Matthew Ross struggles to locate any sign of life. Management is less and Matthew Ross doesn't film anything strong, no soul in this movie. I can't consider this film as good, it has not fulfilled its contract, neither at the level of the entertainment and even less with regard to its depth. A movie that we can do without.
