When the Professor David Stewart (Liam Neeson) misses his flight from New York back home, his wife, the gynecologist Catherine Stewart (Julianne Moore), is very disappointed since she had organized a surprise party to celebrate David's birthday with their friends. On the next morning, Catherine hears the message box of David's cellphone and gets suspicious that her husband is having an affair with a student. Catherine stumbles with the young call-girl Chloe (Amanda Seyfried) and she hires the escort to seduce her husband and test how faithful he is. Chloe meets Catherine everyday to report her encounters with David and how he cheats her. Catherine gets excited with the details that Chloe tells to her, but sooner she finds that her middle-age crisis has brought another menace to her family.
"Chloe" is a lame film by Atom Egoyan, with the story of a middle aged upper-class woman that believes that her husband is cheating her and brings a serious problem to her family. This movie is actually a remake of 2003 "Nathalie X", which is better and better, with Fanny Ardant, Emmanuelle Béart and Gérard Depardieu in the lead roles. Atom Egoyan made a soap-opera with the relationship of Catherine, her son and Chloe that does not exist in the original film. Another great flaw of this remake the gorgeous Julianne Moore in the role of Catherine, since this actress is more beautiful than Amanda Seyfried and naked there is no comparison, with the tight breasts of Julianne Moore. Further, mature and cynical dialogs between the characters of Fanny Ardant and Gérard Depardieu are incomparable. The conclusion à la "Fatal Attraction" is ridiculous. My vote is four.
Title (Brazil): "O Preço da Ambição" ("The Price of the Ambition")
