Summary: Karis (Nicole Oliver) is a clothing store owner who picks up a handsome music executive, Lars (Christopher Shyer), in a bar and immediately engages him in some very hot sex that leads to an ongoing physical relationship. One morning Lars encounters Morgan (Rob Lee) in Karis' kitchen; Morgan is her future ex-husband and a policeman with a violent temper who begins a campaign of intimidation to make Lars stop seeing Karis. But wait: 30 minutes into the movie the point-of-view changes to Morgan's, and we see he's not such a bad guy after all and that Lars is the hot-tempered villain. But wait: 30 minutes later the point of view switches to Karis, and it turns out that she hasn't been completely honest about things. Whose story is the real one? ~ Buzz McClain, Rovi

Buzz McClain

It's not Rashomon, but Faithless -- a dark little experiment in narrative storytelling -- surpasses expectations. The direction by Raul Sanchez Inglis, who also scripted, is at times uncertain, and there is an obvious amount of redundancy that might have been trimmed without costing anything to the story, but overall the film is engaging and adequately entertaining. Most notable are the cagey performances of the handsome main trio, as each actor changes personality -- some slightly, some drastically -- for each of the different viewpoints. The erotic elements, a few of which are somewhat explicit, are edited briskly and without clich?. The shocking ending might catch a few by surprise -- and it might infuriate others with its abrupt violence -- but for the most part it works as a satisfying conclusion to a sexy-yet-grim tale. ~ Buzz McClain, Rovi
