Fast-talking defence lawyer Antonio Banderas draws upon the philosophy of Marcus Aurelius to help him hunt down the killer of his neglected wife and daughter in a revenge thriller that at least tries to be a little different. Unfortunately, it's a gimmick that does little to disguise the routine nature of a plot that is riddled with holes (the most inefficient of police departments would nail this killer within a matter of days). Banderas does well despite being shackled by his character's pointless vow of silence.
