You feel the fight go out of Atom Egoyan in Chloe, even before it becomes a straight up Sapphic Fatal Attraction.

As it is, it looks like a cerebral director and hard working cast trying to treat a piece of trash much more seriously than it deserves.

Egoyan simply jettisons the usual thriller boilerplate (chase scenes, etc.) and then stretches out everything else with arty indulgence.
