On the plus side, Shawn Hatosy is solid in the lead and likeable. The movie also features some good music and decent cinematography. Unfortunately, Rachael Leigh Cook comes across as a vapid ditz, and Jonathan Rhys-Meyers engages in some serious scenery-chewing (as does Lorraine Bracco, slumming from the "Sopranos"). The plot is not particularly believable and tries too hard to have a supposedly "shocking" resolution (which is pretty predictable). I also found that I didn't even remotely care about the characters or what happened to them. Recommended only for fans of Shawn Hatosy and/or tepid romance thrillers.

Rachael Leigh Cook's character is torn between her male best friend who has feelings for her, and her boyfriend who is slightly off the rails. We begin with the best friend in hospital and he is being questioned by a detective played by Lorraine Bracco. Via the bestfriend's flashbacks which may or may not be true, the detective has to piece together what happened between the girl, the best friend and the boyfriend.

The quality of filming isn't too bad in itself but there just isn't enough substance to the story. I suggest you buy "Tangled" if you are a Rachael Leigh Cook fan, but if not, you're not gonna exactly be heartbroken if you don't have this on your DVD shelf.

I'm not saying it's terrible- it just could have been so much better.
