Illégitime défense

"Sirens" is all about Delany as is a top corporate exec who sets out to get the cop who shot her ex-husband to death during a routine street incident. The film's premise has merit and even the story has potential. However, the execution is an abomination with huge, gaping plot holes at every juncture. Young asks us to swallow huge portions of nonsense as we see everything from police procedure to human nature malformed to fit an awkward, unbelievable, and amateurish screenplay poorly concealed by a thin varnish of trite Hollywoodistics. From its dumb title to its lame conclusion where small talk is interjected between credits, "Sirens" is a good film to miss. (D+)

I decided to watch this partly because of Dana Delaney and partly because the basic idea seemed interesting. It was, however, a mistake.

The movie got very bad towards the end, as the characters and their behaviour became more and more unrealistic and unbelievable. I can't get over the thought that people who made this movie actually may think that these characters would be interesting and/or thought-provoking or anything else that movie characters are supposed to be. The plot was quite weak as well, but the character development was by far the worst I've seen in a long time. It was a bit painful to see ms Delaney in such a poor film, as I've liked all her previous work very much.

Absolutely, positively, this movie has my vote as the stinker of the millenium. An absolutely abominal waste of time and talent to make this movie about a woman's fight to expose a police cover-up after they kill her ex-husband. This woman's fight takes her into the unbeliveably extraordinary step of compromising herself to get the truth out (I won't say what she did) about what really happened the night that her ex-husband was killed. My rating for this dud is 0.1 out of 10, and that 0.1 is only because Dana Delaney is so sexy!

ignore the other users comments and watch it yourself. im not saying its a great movie, but it has enough interesting scenes to make it a 'watch whilst im doing something else' movie.

and then of course there is dana delany who cant help getting into leather coat and gloves...

I watched this movie yesterday and I enjoyed it. All the actors were great. Dana Delany played a successful woman that preferred work to everything else in her life till her ex-husband was killed by 2 cops. Right after she found out that justice is no longer by her side, she decides to make her own justice. I've never seen this actress before but I think that there should be more actresses like her - pure and emotional. Justin Theroux was even better. It's a pity that the director didn't do more with such great performances!!! That's the only flaw in this movie. Also they put too much philosophy into the script. It should have been in the context, not in the text itself.. Anyway - watch it!
