Kept me interested. A good mystery. Solid conclusion. Good acting. Rush does an excellent job with the main role.

If you enjoy a film rich with symbolism and a good surprise ending, don't miss "The Best Offer." It plays like an intriguing novel where every element echoes key themes of living on borrowed time, hiding from love and paying the price for lies and arrogance. Geoffery Rush and Sylvia Hoeks' acting is superb, as is Guiseppe Tornatore's ("Cinema Paradiso") directing. In fact, this gorgeous slow-burn is worth a look, if only for the terrific finish.

Geoffrey Rush plays a know-it-all antique dealer, expert in his domain, master of his own world, a world in a bubble, who is seduced into the lair of a mysterious woman. We follow his infatuation with interest, as nervous as he about several red flags that show up, vaguely aware that some bubble-bursting is highly probable. The rest of the cast do "trustworthy" - making this less of a whodunit and more a who's doing it, a tell in itself. The payoff is somewhat anticlimactic, the ending limp, but until then a mystery that holds one's attention due to Rush's command of the screen.
