Spinning Man.

If you want to waste some 1,5 hrs of your time do watch it. If not, then don't.
I'd hoped there'd be a good ending that'd clear things up as much was vague, but no good ending either.
Clearly Pierce Brosnan doesn't necessarily equal a good movie. This one was pretty noir, vague, and to be honest, crap.
