Frank Morrison (John Travolta) is a divorced father of a boy (Matt O'Leary) who is having trouble with the split. His ex-wife Susan (Teri Polo) is getting remarried to Rick Barnes (Vince Vaughn). At the wedding, Ray (Steve Buscemi) from Rick's past raises some suspicions. Rick may not be the nice guy that everybody thinks that he is.
It's a thriller filled with all the dangers without any compelling characters. It actually starts with the kid character who is unlikeably angry. He's the key to it all. We need to like him and root for him. Then there is the unimpressive story. It piles everything on without any reservation. It overwhelms. The police work is laughable. The film certainly holds nothing back. There is no subtlety here. This is a too by-the-book thriller that tells you everything that's going to happen in the first 15 minutes.
