Movie Reviews of Deception
Movie Review: Excellent and Unique
Summary: 5 Stars
Deception can actually be pretty deceptive itself, basically because it just sounds like another flick of lies, sex, and manipulation. Well it is, but its also a lot more. Ewen's character here is very different from what he usually plays, he always seems kind of timid and innocent in films, but especially this one. He's an accountant who acts clueless in the world of sex, and love. So what happens is he meets a man(hugh jackman) who accidently(or is it) gets his cell phone switched with Mcgregors. Well on the phone there is a list, people keep calling saying are you free tonight making him feel a little odd. But as you would expect the numbers have been given to him on purpose, its a sex club. After a bit of trepidation he finally decides why not, and has sex with about ohh 10 women or so. As you may have guessed there is one in particular he saw before, and of course he falls for her. This is where i will stop and just say watch it for yourself, it gets very interesting after about the first 35 minutes or so. The performances are great, the sex it greater, and by the end of the movie your left thinking wow, i really didn't think this movie would be that great. You don't really turn your head for a second or want to get up without pausing because you may be left in the dark. So this is definitely one of those underrated films that won't, or didn't get proper recognition, so get it, enjoy it. I sure did. Ewen Mcgregor is a stellar performer, and this movie keeps him going strong.
Summary of Deception
An accountant is introduced to a mysterious, sex-dating club known as The List by his lawyer friend. He becomes enthralled in this new lifestyle, but he soon becomes the prime suspect in a womanâ??s disappearance and a multimillion-dollar heist.With its attractive cast and "stylish thriller" vibe, Deception is a much better movie than a raft of negative reviews might suggest--provided that you can suspend (if not completely discard) your disbelief and go along for the ride. The first feature by veteran commercial director Marcel Langenegger, it stars Ewan McGregor as Jonathan McQuarry, a mousy freelance tax auditor who?s taken under the wing of one Wyatt Bose (Hugh Jackman), a slick, ultra-confident Manhattan lawyer. We know from jump that Jonathan?s new best friend isn?t all, or even any, that he seems, and sure enough, when the pair "accidentally" switch cell phones, a series of credibility-defying events destined to turn Jonathan?s bleak, lonely life upside down is set in motion. At first, it?s all good, as the wide-eyed young CPA finds himself joining "The List," a Wall Street sex club that brings together lawyers, stockbrokers, and other professionals whose lives are too busy for anything more than brief, anonymous assignations at various high-rent hotels (exchanging real names is verboten is this world). But apparently spending nights with the likes of Natasha Henstridge and Charlotte Rampling isn?t enough; when he meets the blonde beauty known only as "S" (Michelle Williams), the club?s credo of "intimacy without intricacy" goes out the window, lust turns to love, and Jonathan is drawn into a protracted cat-and-mouse game that leads to murder, big-time corporate embezzlement, identity switches, and other nefarious activity. One needn?t be Nostradamus to predict where all of this is headed, but that?s hardly the point. Even if you don?t buy a single moment of it, Deception is fun, flashy, and entertaining--and since when is pure escapism a bad thing? --Sam Graham
