Dr. Catherine Stewart (Julianne Moore) is a successful gynaecologist who works in a small town. Her husband David (Liam Neeson) is a music professor who works in New York City and only returns home at weekends. She suspects him of being unfaithful to her, so she hires Chloe (Amanda Seyfried), an exclusive call girl, to test her husband's fidelity. As we find out, David had never cheated on his wife before, but he is unable to resist Chloe's powers of seduction. Then things spiral out of control. Chloe goes on to seduce Catherine's teenage son and Catherine herself.
The film's plot is fascinating. I admit to having been excited by the naked scenes. Amanda Seyfried is a very beautiful woman. And yet I have the feeling that it could have been better. Something is missing. I'm not sure what.
The alternate endings included on the DVD are worth watching. Especially the ending with the voiceover by Catherine. They point out something (I don't want to spoil it by telling you what it is) that the director probably intended to say in the film, but was never made clear. He should have put the message across better.
