David Cronenberg’s latest effort sees Robert Pattinson embodying a young millionaire who embarks on a crosstown journey through the streets of New York in a stretch limo, making random acquaintances, having hot sex with Juliette Binoche and shooting people for no reason.

David Cronenberg’s latest effort sees Robert Pattinson embodying a young millionaire who embarks on a crosstown journey through the streets of New York in a stretch limo, making random acquaintances, having hot sex with Juliette Binoche and shooting people for no reason. Adapting a Don DeLillo novel, Cronenberg ventures down the same path he did with "A Dangerous Method". The combination of capitalism and psychotherapy against the backdrop of a globalized community in revolt. Ph.V.
