The film started well with the introduction of all the characters at a glamorous venue. It took the form of an elaborate murder mystery scenario and for a while it was jolly good fun, with some good visuals.

After the first hour or so, however, it dropped into a flashback thing which explained some of the background, but it went on for a crazy long time - something which might have taken 5 mins max in an old style film felt like it went on for half an hour, with no visual enhancements, and it dropped off a cliff for me. It eventually recovered into a good finish, but I am struggling to think of another film that evr dropped the pace in the middle for so long!
