This film is about a parole officer who is about to retire. He works on whether an arsonist should be released or not, which leads to undesired consequences.
"Stone" sounds like a crime thriller on paper, but it just what it is not. It is so slow moving, that the first seduction by Milla Jovovich happens forty minutes into the film. Just when the seduction subplot starts to pick up, suddenly the film becomes religious. Then suddenly the wife has gone crazy. The plot is all over the place, lacking in focus and clarity. It cannot decide whether it wants to be a thriller or drama. As a result, "Stone" is so boring, literally making my eyelids as heavy as stones.
Performance impression:
Director: John Curran
Stars: Edward Norton, Milla Jovovich, Robert De Niro
