'The Two Faces of January' follows a tourist couple in Greece and a tourist guide who gets acquainted with them. In the beginning, I thought it would be romantic drama but the movie changed course and became something different, a decent thriller of sorts.
The Two Faces of January is not a great film but it has its good moments. The colonial, rustic charm of Greece is well portrayed and I felt, as I do always with great landscapes, that I should visit the place.
The movie shows the different faces of people and the lengths which ordinary people are willing to go for their convenience, to save themselves from troubles and laws of the society, while accumulating money. The movie is a decent drama worth a one time watch.
