In my last post, We have seen Robin Williams played as a villain in "Insomnia"..
This time, Its Pierce Brosnan's turn in this infamous/underrated movie "Shattered (Butterfly on a wheel)"..
"Butterfly on a Wheel" - directed by Mike Barker (who impressed me well with his "Best Laid Plans") with Pierce Brosnan, Maria Bello & Gerard Butler in the lead roles..
Story line in short - "It circles around an young married couple's fight with a kidnapper who got their child"..
Thats it..I am not gonna elaborate it more.. Because, Shattered is a movie that you really need to stay away from watching/reading too much about it.. Reading up on too much information can spoil the entire movie for you..
"Butterfly on a Wheel" is truly a great suspense Thriller.. For the whole 90 minutes, I was working out to find what the plot is all about.. Is it a sort of Psycho act? or Business related rival's act?..
Well, I got answered at its twist ending..
Honestly speaking, I watched "Butterfly on a Wheel" only for Pierce Brosnan (As always, He is Awesome!!)..
His transformation as a Bad Guy is an excellent move (after his Bond series movies) & it worked out well in this movie..
After "The Thomas Crown Affair", this is - without a doubt the best performance he has done..
Especialy in the denouement scene, Brosnan almost humanizing in his acting..
I loved Pierce Brosnan's intro.. With the menacing backround music, He is introduced with a cool helicopter shot that swoops in over the Chicago city, angles down for a overhead view of rooftops, finally ending with Brosnan on one of those roofs.. In the same continuos shot, the camera swings around him who is surveying the city through binoculars..
(I read a article about this shot.. Mike Barker reveals that this once single shot is actually a combination of multipe different shots.. Seriuolsy, I could not detect those cuts.. It was such a superb-flawless editing..)
Apart from Pierce Brosnan - Maria Bello & Gerard Butler played as the impacted couple gave a decent performance..
As i said earlier - Dont get into any ideas.. Just, Go & watch.. You will not be shattered..:-)
The less you know - the more you will enjoy!!
