Wesley Snipes stars as a commercial director who begins to reevaluate his life after a visit with his AIDS-infected best friend (Robert Downey Jr.) and a one night stand with a beautiful rocket scientist (Nastassja Kinski). Though it shows some intelligence in dealing with issues of loss and adultery, Mike Figgis' latest effort lacks the complexity and emotional heft of Leaving Las Vegas. What redeems the sketchy script just enough to make the film bearable is Figgis' jazzy direction and a nuanced performance by Snipes.
