Think of a romantic, handsome, versatile actor and somewhere in there would be Australian born Hugh Jackman, always the gentleman, as seen in Woody Allen’s Scoop with Scarlett Johansson and the romantic love interest of Meg Ryan in Kate and Leopold.
So to see him in the murdering role of Jamie Getz/Wyatt Bose in Deception comes as a bit of a shock only causing a girl’s pulse to beat faster with fright rather than passion!
Hugh, in this manipulating tantalizing role, is teamed up with Michelle Williams (partner of the deceased Heath Ledger) whom he takes from a street corner call girl to a pawn in his intriguing plot to secure $20 million from the bank account of a deceased millionaire associate.
William’s role is initially hard to read and comes across as slightly bland, along with the character of Jonathan McQuarry played by Ewan McGreger. Jonathan is an accountant who is befriended by Jackman who brings excitement to his otherwise boring life when he introduces him to a sex club known as The List. As the plot unravels Michelle, as ‘S’ becomes a deeper character than the movie first suggests.
Eventually, we are taken to a conclusion that is meant to be exotic, sexual and finally explains some of the strange camera shots of a leaky pipe along the way!
The last few moments of the movie, filmed in a park in Madrid, leave the cinema-goer with several unanswered questions, such as, where the hell is the $20 million?

Samantha Ronson aka Lindsay Lohan’s better-half endured quite a shock last Thursday evening while deejaying at Chicago’s Crimson Lounge.
According to E! News, LiLo had just headed back to the inseparable pair’s shared suite after spending several hours chilling beside the professional spinner when the incident took place. With the Mean Girls star out of the picture, a deranged Ronson fan jumped into the DJ’s booth and nearly destroyed it. Chi-town police Sgt. Antoinette Ursitti told the aforementioned publication that 22-year-old Lindsay Burns was charged with “simple battery” after “punching, kicking and generally resisting removal…”
Medication much??“She was only 100 pounds, but she managed to take two of my own security guys down,” Crimon’s general manager Matthew McCahill commented. “I just looked over, and I saw that two of my guys were down. I know she kneed one of them, but I don’t know how she got the other one down.”
No word yet on whether the young girl - who was taken away in handcuffs - has been released from custody or not. Luckily after the proverbial smoke cleared, Ronson was able to complete the remainder of her set before joining Lohan at Hotel Sax.
Lindsay Burns should count her lucky stars that the actress was not present during the whole debacle, LiLo would have surely pulled a Crouching Tiger on her a$$!

Has anyone seen the Empire State Building with its top 33 floors lit up, peach, purple and cream before? No!
Has any female performer ever had 18 number ones on Billboard before? No!
Then put the two together and there’s the answer!
This weekend, upon questioning various people in Manhattan, I was reliably informed, the ESB was regally lit in purple to celebrate the achievement made by New York’s own diva Mariah Carey, who this week took over the number one spot with Touch My Body
Which has been taken from her latest album, Touch My Body from her latest album, E=MC².
The record for the most number one positions was previously held by Elvis Presley who found himself there 17 times and by The Beatles who had 21 number one singles and still hold the title as men and as a group.
