Mike Nichols brings to the big screen an intriguing story of passion, drama, love and abandonment involving two couples, which only gets more complicated when the man from the first couple gets acquainted with the woman from the second coupling. Julia Roberts, Jude Law, Natalie Portman, and Clive Owen pull off strong acting performances in this twisted love story.
Set in contemporary London, Closer is funny at times, and sometimes nerve wracking. There are loads of time leaps to follow, so don't leave your seat. This will probably remind you of Nichols' "Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf" and "Carnal Knowledge."
