Dot the I

- Danger is in the details

Young lovers in London are wrapped up in a love triangle that may not be exactly what it seems. Carmen, a beautiful Spanish woman with a tendency to lose her temper at the drop of a hat, is about to be married to Barnaby, a caring, wealthy, but slightly boring Englishman. While out with friends on her 'hen night' she encounters a stranger who suddenly sparks a passion that has been sleeping within her. As her wedding date approaches, she finds herself struggling to put this newcomer out of her mind, but his effect on her keeps growing stronger. What is it that he sees in her, and why does she feel like she's being pushed inevitably into his arms?

Though it's pretty far-fetched, I quite enjoyed this. "Kit" (Gael García Bernal) goes out for a meal with his pals "Tom" (Tom Hardy) and "Theo" (Charlie Cox) when he becomes embroiled in the celebrations of an hen night at the table next to them. His job is to give the bride-to-be her final kiss as a free woman. This kiss ends up being a bit more intense that anyone was comfortable with, and she flees the place. "Carmen" (Natalia Verbeke) is clearly impacted by this and her fiancé "Barnaby" (James D'Arcy) knows it. As the story progresses, "Kit" and "Carmen" meet again and, well you can guess what happens - expect, well you can't really. It turns out completely differently from how I was expecting - and that quirky scenario plays out in quite an original and innovative fashion. There's an hint of chemistry between GGB and Verbeke and even the handsome but wooden D'Arcy turns in a decent effort. Fans of Hardy and Cox needn't really bother - they are rarely on screen, but there is something about the sneakiness of the whole thing that worked for me. Not great, no - but the concept is a bit more unique than many.
