Preposterously nonsensical thriller in which a female
executive at a computer company accuses a male colleague of sexual harassment after he rejects her advances. The film drops this plot in the final act when it becomes some technological
nightmare which only the writer of the novel it's based on will understand.
The performances are also as bad as the plot,
especially Demi Moore, portraying a thoroughly unlikeable character.
4/10
