En Cuba, Luis Vargas (Antonio Banderas) sostiene una relación epistolar con Julia Russell (Angelina Jolie), una atractiva americana. En principio ella es todo lo que él necesita para casarse y el hecho de que sea norteamericana, es ideal para proyectar el estatus al que él aspira. Pero un buen día Julia desaparece... con el dinero de Luis. Ahora, Luis sólo piensa en vengarse y emprende un viaje hacia el complicado pasado de Julia. Las consecuencias de esa odisea de mentiras descubiertas y pasiones encontradas son devastadoras tanto para él como para ella. (Disney España)

Well, to be honest, it wasn't so bad that it could be compared to soap operas, which is not to say that it wasn't plot-wise so stupid and logically leaky. At the beginning it looked like a romantic flick, then there are some interesting twists and turns, and in the scene at the end I was cynically amused, its absurdity made me feel like I was watching a Monthy Python sketch, and the beautifully silly scene with the poison reminded me of Marysha and her coffee. I was cynically entertained and I can’t say I was disappointed.

The boring and idiotic script, written by Michael Cristofer, was also directed by him. Boring and idiotic (or one could say, somewhat mischievously, that he did a good job). What is supposed to be surprising is vulgarly expected, what is supposed to build up is boring, what is supposed to be moving is awkward to the point of shame. And the bland pairing of Banderas and Jolie doesn't help the result either... It's not even below average, it's just plain bad. It is an hour and three-quarters of soap opera containing everything that is inherent in soap operas. I was only really interested in Terrence Blanchard's music.
