...storyline wholly devoid of momentum. Volpi comingles his characters with historical figures that invariably outshine the author’s creations. We are drawn more to Volpi’s sarcastic spin on Stalin and other Cold War stars than to Volpi’s own half-hearted original cast, whose members are clearly little more than vehicles for Volpi’s heavy-handed, utterly sterile critique of greed and the postmodern loss of individual identity. Even if Volpi intended for the storyline to play second fiddle to his socio-political commentary, poor character development renders these auxiliaries distracting...

Lawrence has already received the Marcello Mastroianni Award for emerging actors at the Venice Film Festival—an honor previously given to fellow Arriaga actor Gael García Bernal—which her bracing performance richly deserves. Although uniformly believable, the remaining cast does not reach Theron’s or Lawrence’s level. As the guilty mother, Kim Basinger is so shakingly fragile that she comes dangerously close to over-acting, which is frustrating given the subtlety of the rest of the film. J.D. Pardo is effective but one-dimensional...
