Not really. Not as bad as some of the one star reviews, although the criticism is valid, but not as good as the 4 and 5 star reviews. Don't have high expectations, go along for the far fetched ride and just enjoy the location backdrop.

I wasn't sure about this one but I enjoyed it very much. I have never been a fan of Jolie but she was ok in this one but Johnny Depp played the part of the tourist to perfection. It was action packed but comic in places because of the wonderful acting of Depp, and it had a lovely little twisty surprise at the end. Altogether very good viewing

Yes yes yes! This is a great film! Action/ comedy/ romance - Goodness, it could fit every genre, but it does so with a James-Bond style smoothness. Gorgeous on-location filming, interesting storyline, wonderful acting, captivating on-screen presence/ interaction between Jolie and Depp. I was wrapped in this story from beginning to end.... The journey the story takes you on is unexpected, but very well done. Loved it! 4 stars!

The ending was a surprise for me!! I enjoyed the ending but generally the bulk of the movie was hard to like. Jolie was unlikeable. A good plot but poorly executed.

terrible. depp looked overweight and drugged, while jolie acted like a thunderbird puppet, there are about 20 continuity mistakes and some lines were so forgettable I had to replay them straight after. these actors should both feel DEEP shame about collecting a pay check a wasting our time.

This movie was quite a surprise, although I admit I wasn't expecting too much. I thought it was great because it had a completely different metre to most modern movies. There were a few too many lingering camera moments on Angelina, but she does look fabulous - great costumes, make-up etc. Johnny looks suitably dishevelled and underplays his character. The scenery was spectacular. Story was reasonably good although a few cliches. But it had the best final line ...... you'll have to watch it to find out what it is.

good entertainment. The last part has a satisfying twist that makes you feel 'good'. On the other handJohnny Depp was so convincing as the bumbling naive tourist that at the end it was hard to believe that he was in control all the time!

OMG.... what were Jonnny Depp and Angelina Jolie thinking when they did this movie? Weak story line - Bit sad they have to make this one - slow - some great scenery of Venice - but would definately not watch it again. I gave 1 star only because they are such beautiful people!

Didnt quite deserve 5 stars but Im feeling generous, an enjoyable film and how nice to see an 'old school' film without gratuitous sex or violence. Yes Hollywood, it can be done! This film lacks that 'spark' that defines great films but spectacular cinematography, a good cast, decent plot and a couple of terrific scenes make this a very enjoyable film.

The European, old-world and old-school charm were the best thing about this film. It was watchable, yet predictable, and although the director tried to capture the 'who-is-it' movie from long ago, did not quite get there. Perhaps the editing was not up to snuff, or the chemistry between the actors...

Even for light entertainment it lacks for everything except locations. Predictable, and memorable only for it's forgetableness. Angelina Jolie doesn't even bother to do any acting. She does one pout throughout and not much else. Johnny Depp gets the chance to show how welll he has honed his british accent. Unthrilling, unexciting and unromantic; the opposite of what it would have liked to have been.

Observer
says
Embarrassingly awful - with Jolie as an extremely attractive wooden dolly. Cobbled together by one or more ??? just out of film and video school. I know says one let's take Joan Collin's accent for the approximately 400 elocutionised with pain words uttered during the whole film by Jolie. Then add some visuals from some early Sophia Loren films especially all the iconic high boobs and lotsa wiggles. We'll have a bunch of laughingly and totally stereotypical gangsters with dialogue to die for. The whole film only has three actors anyone has ever heard of- all the rest must come cheap so we will spend a bit on some really great music that would have suited an epic movie (about the only thing worth mentioning) What a good thing it was set in France and Venice - at least the scenery couldn't be messed up Then add bits of memory from the 39 Steps, lots of dollops from all the James Bond films without any of the surprise or pizzaa (don't forget it even has Timothy Dalton in it. And would you believe - guess what - at the end they take off in a boat - now I wonder which films THAT ending is from? Poor Johnny Depp - having to be the unbelievable klutz who Miss Absolutely Gorgeous falls head over heels in love and all that as a result of a static coupla two/three word conversations and oh so many pointed pouts and sultry eyelash sweeping looks. What's good abut this film - I didn't see at the movies - so I didn't waste my money.

Movie was enjoyable to watch. worked out the twist half way through. Cinematography of venice was wonderful. Not alot of dialogue in the scheme of things, but it wasnt really needed. Some parts of movie were bland , but all in all was a good movie to watch. Jolie and Pitt were mediocre but may have been due to script. once again still enjoyable to watch

This movie seems to have everything going for it - great actors, great locations, big budget. But the main character /relationship development is severely lacking and the plot is shallow. Angelina does ok in her usual role of "the mysterious spy-woman", but Johnny, who is an excellent actor, just has nothing to work with in the script and comes across as unexciting, awkward and boring. This might be the script writers intention but it makes for a bad movie. The ending is predictable because it is so cliche.

Hmmm, someone was trying to make a movie to become a comedy, thriller, and love story and failed in all three Comedy by the (French) police, add a litle bit of a boat chace as a thriller, and a dash of (comic) love story.... stereotyped by the back for bad and white for good.... Some parts were believalbe, most wasn't . Still I wanted to see what happen next.... I am sure that Jodie and Depp could have done with a better script In short it had all the hallmarks of a B-movie made in Europe (French perhaps? )

A fun, glamorous fling of a film. Venice is the real star here, the story is escapist and has a few unexpected turns and has a touch of the 007 movies. Johnny and Angelina are always easy on the eye and I've seen them do better but all in all a nice bit of fluff.

Not since she appeared in "Girl Interrupted" has Angelina Jolie appeared in a decent movie again. It seems that movie makers are obsessed with putting her immense beauty on display to the detriment of a good story. If i see another scene with Jolie, pouting and elegantly defeating bad guys - i'm going to die of boredom. Highly under-whelming.

Revolves around Frank, an American tourist visiting Italy to mend a broken heart. Elise is an extraordinary woman who deliberately crosses his path. The worst movie since Plan 9 from Outer Space. Absolute rubbish

A bit ho hum. Very predictable plot yet also somewhat disjointed, which is quite a feat. I got the feeling that it was badly directed, but maybe just too much footage simply ended up on the cutting room floor which can negate the best direction. If it had better direction and/or editing I'd have given another star. Still, its well worth watching. Picturesque, and I'm not just referring to the unnecessarily pretty Jolie!

Mostly i enjoyed this because i have been to venice and it is a fantastic backdrop to this story. I think if it had been set elsewhere i would not have enjoyed it so much as the story was a little predictable!

Why Johnnie, why? You are too clever and talented to waste yourself on this sort of trash. The only reason I figure you bothered with this one was because of the nice working holiday you got in Venice.

If you don't think about it too much or ask too many questions of the storyline - it's not such a bad movie!!! Enjoyed it but not one to rave about which is a shame with two big name actors. Should have been better. 2.5

The directing was awful. It was so slowly paced and the actors were given nothing to work with to show their talents. We couldn't stop commenting throughout the movie how boring it was and wondering why these stars were in it when any b-grade actor would have had the same impact.

This movie is a remake of the original title Anthony Zimmer. I have watched the original version a few years ago and I remember it to this day because it was excellent. Unfortunately this film has nothing to do with that. There is that one scene where deep is drunk and it was just Captain Jack Sparrow with on make up on

Tate
says
This is a film which relies almost entirely on the beauty of Jolie and the scenery. As a film it is an abysmal failure. Depp's talent is nowhere to be seen - his character is pathetic and poorly played. Jolie just prances around in vertiginous heels letting her unquestionable beauty do the talking rather than her questionable acting 'talent'. Paul Bettany as the English cop puts in an excellent performance and if it wasn't for the visual spectacle of the locations he would be the most memorable thing in the movie. The film, though supposed to be fast-paced, is a slow and gruelling experience and the 'big reveal' at the end is poorly executed and kind of expected. Utterly forgettable: the star is for Venice.

Ok well for me I like to look at Johnny Depp who seems to age well. Good to see Angelina Jolie dolled up rather than her cool masculine roles. Together I thought they were perfect both good actors not my favourites though. But the story not even they could save. I worked it out from the beginning and said yeah what else at the end. Worth watching still but you won't get excited over it.

I tend to not enjoy movies that are tailored to the actors or when it relies on the star power too much. That seemed to be the case here as I would've given it a 2 star if Johnny Depp wasn't in it. It wasn't anything special but it had a decent twist to the ending which made up for some of the drag-ass plot. I gave it 3 stars because it was a beautiful landscape with some good humor every now and again.
