Ripley's Game(2002): Movie Review


                                             
                  Jim Pagiamtzis Review:
                    All start cast with John Malkovich (Conair) and Dougray Scott (Mission Impossible 2) play a game of trust and deception. Ultimately headed for deadly climax of dangerous game.


                  Movie Plot:

            Tom Ripley - cool, urbane, wealthy, and murderous - lives in a villa in the Veneto with Luisa, his harpsichord-playing girlfriend.
 A former business associate from Berlin's underworld pays a call asking Ripley's help in killing a rival. Ripley - ever a student of human nature - initiates a game to turn a mild and innocent local picture framer into a hit man.
The artisan, Jonathan Trevanny, who's dying of cancer, has a wife, young son, and little to leave them.
 If Ripley draws Jonathan into the game, can Ripley maintain control?
Does it stop at one killing?
What if Ripley develops a conscience?
Luisa prepares for her concert.
