Films based around vignettes - series of short stories that are loosely connected - are usually patchy, inconsistent.
Vienna - Jude Law is an automobile dealer at a trade show, arranging to meet an escort at a bar.
Paris - someone follows a woman in a red beret.
London - Rachel Weisz is having an assignation with her lover, who returns to his studio to find that his girlfriend has cleared out. Weisz's husband turns out to be Jude Law.
Colorado - a prisoner is due to be released from a sex offender's unit.
On a flight from London to Colorado, the girlfriend chats with Anthony Hopkins.
I said it was patchy. For a few minutes the story that wove through the film seemed to make sense, but in the end it was all a waste of time.
