Sleuth (2007)

I am a big fan of Branagh's work and of Caine. This film tries very hard, but ultimately I think it falls short in its storytelling, its assimilation of media, and its pedantic-esque dialogue. Law seems to be game and Caine always performs his lines with so much believability that it makes Law look like he's pretending to act. Caine has control of each scene and even when he doesn't he takes it back whenever he likes, but it's still not enough.
