Description

A family's dangerous legacy unravels as a mother's desperate relationship with a Nazi doctor during WWII haunts the lives and loves of her sons. In 1990's New York, her eldest son (Josh Lucas) finds a way out of his tailspin of one night stands and scams when he befriends a charming co-worker (Adam Brody), while his brother (Lukas Haas) struggles in a compulsive, co-dependent relationship with their mother (Jacqueline Bisset). Death in Love is a darkly sensual exploration of the ties that bind.

    It is a story of unlikeable people who get themselves involved with other unlikeable people. By the time the movie is over, nothing is learned and you have no sympathy for anything that has happened to anyone, except maybe the father who may be the only innocent person in the whole movie, but you only ever see the back of his head, never his face. The Brother, though eccentric and a bit "off", is spoiled and coddled and acts like a baby. The Lead is a con-artist who feeds on people's dreams. The mother his horrid, which you only really learn about towards the end. The co-workers and alleged friends of the lead character, though seemingly likeable at first, also turn out to be horrible people. Josh Lucas, once hot, has lost his shape (probably on purpose for this film) so even seeing him nude is not a pleasurable experience. Nor did I believe he was jewish. I did not get the point of the movie. Maybe it's that "Evil Begets Evil" or "Evil People are Unhappy" in which case, I saved you two hours. ALL that aside, the acting was good. However, that wasn't enough to save this movie.

    um, the movie had a really interesting plot but there were too many things that were left open or completely irrelevant because the storyline wasn't finished. this could have been done a lot better, i usually like josh lucas but i really didn't like his performance in this.
