I'm a big fan of Scarlett Johanssom. On a superficial level, she's a very attractive woman but more because she is usually in really good films, but this isn't one of them. This film isn't terrible. It is watchable and you definitely won't predict the events that take place. The problem with this film is that some of the other characters are rather dull, especially the main character's wife. Most importantly, the PLOT HOLES!!!!

1) the affair I felt was very obvious and maybe the wife just didn't want to believe or accept it 2) they didn't take any foot prints from the old lady's flat which would have obviously matched her killer's 3) even before the piece of jewellery was found, you think the police would have immediately confiscated the shotguns he had access to in order to run ballistics tests!!!

4) they would have spoken to Nola's work colleague know she was coming home to meet who she was having an affair with 5) he was a clear suspect with motive, but didn't confiscate his phone to check his call log and also run cell site on his phone!!!?

6) the dad didn't notice the shotgun missing all that time...?

I could go on and on but no need. The film was poorly executed. The film was watchable but I wouldn't waste your time if you're thinking about checking it out.
