I don’t mean uncomfortable in the sense of making the viewer squirm. Rather, when the film takes a left turn in the final act, it moves into territory that’s both too predictable and too implausible at the same time. Still, having gone there, Egoyan cranks up the suspense as best he can, creating a feeling of dread that’s effective, if not quite believable.
Moore has a jittery reticence, an almost prissy quality that makes this character intriguing and believable. She’s made herself into a prude, a quality that seems calculated to shield her from base urges that she would rather not deal with. Moore conveys a lot of feeling with a little, as a woman who finds herself in the deep end when she finally does give in to her suppressed appetite.
Seyfried has a kind of disembodied sultriness – she’s a sex worker who doesn’t get emotionally involved in her job, yet never betrays her lack of connection to the client. But she too is blocking feelings she can’t control, which make her even more seductive when she gives in to them.

With its embrace of genre and slick production values, “Chloe” represents director Atom Egoyan (”The Sweet Hereafter”) and screenwriter Erin Cressida Wilson’s (”Secretary” and “Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus”) most mainstream efforts to date. Cue the “not there’s anything wrong with that.” In fact, in many ways this chilly romantic thriller does provide a welcome break from Wilson’s standard envelope-pushing head-scratchers. The problem is that her queasy sexual politics remain front and center.
“Chloe” is based upon the 2003 French film “Nathalie…,” and its premise is pretty much the stuff of which French films are made. When music professor David Stewart (Liam Neeson) misses the surprise birthday thrown by his wife, gynecologist Catherine (Julianne Moore), she hires Chloe (Amanda Seyfried), a hotel prostitute, to test his fidelity. Naturally, she finds out more than she really wants to know, and develops a mutual obsession with Chloe that escalates into a dynamic that disrupts the entire veneer of her life, including her already-fragile relationship with her teenage son (Max Thieriot).

Chloe’s Catherine Stewart (Julianne Moore) is an especially miserable and frustrated citizen of Egoyanville. When the movie opens, Catherine’s surprise birthday party for her college professor husband David (Liam Neeson) is about to fizzle when the birthday boy purposefully misses his flight home to have a drink with a pretty student. Catherine has a husband she is convinced is cheating, and she has reached an unpleasant crossroads in her life. Her aging spouse has mellowed into a soulful, appealing “catch,” while she feels that age has only served to make her invisible.
When Catherine has a chance encounter with luscious call girl Chloe (Amanda Seyfried) in a posh restaurant bathroom, an idea forms. Perhaps Catherine can flush out the truth about her husband’s infidelity by paying Chloe to seduce him. As one might guess, things don’t go exactly according to plan.

Sheesh. When will people learn? Under the ironclad laws decreed by movieland, we know that cheating on a spouse leads to nothing but trouble (Fatal Attraction); snooping on a suspected philanderer will only uncover things you really didn’t want to know about (What Lies Beneath, every Lifetime movie ever); and, as shown in Atom Egoyan’s Chloe, hiring a prostitute to tempt your spouse into infidelity is not such a terrific idea. In fact, it just might be the slippery slope that leads you into boiling-bunny territory.
Julianne Moore stars as Catherine, a Toronto gynecologist (why this is a somewhat amusing turn of phrase, I cannot explain) who suspects her husband, David (Liam Neeson), is cheating on her. She has her reasons! David is a college professor who annoyingly gets better-looking with age, is a natural flirt and has young nubile things fluttering their eyelashes at him all the time. After he misses the surprise birthday party Catherine had planned, she dec …

Moore can be very selective these days. A four-time Oscar nominee, the 49-year-old actress has a thriving career and a busy personal life raising two children — a 12-year-old boy and 7-year-old girl — in Manhattan with her director-husband Bart Freundlich.
“I’m very lucky,” said the slender redhead, relaxing on a sofa in a hotel suite. “I love my work and I have a wonderful family. My husband and I try to stagger our work schedules so one of us is always home. Today he’s on a field trip at the planetarium.”
In “Chloe,” directed by Atom Egoyan, Moore plays a doctor who suspects her longtime husband (Liam Neeson) is having an affair. She hires a call girl (Amanda Seyfried) to test his fidelity, but the hooker turns out to have her own agenda and the plan goes awry.

The films of Canadian Atom Egoyan can be political and intellectual, especially when his attention is on the Armenian genocide, but in his new movie Chloe, opening this week, he returns to the themes of an early work, Exotica (1994), in a Freudian teaming of mind and sex.
Viewers may want to see Chloe for the unusually sensitive attention to feminine detail: shapely ankles in strappy stilettos seen from underneath adjacent toilet stalls, lacy lingerie as the mature Julianne Moore as Dr. Catherine Stewart, a gynecologist, makes her toilette, juxtaposed with the young Amanda Seyfried as Chloe, a call girl, readying for a client, or just the voyeuristic thrill of seeing these two women in bed. Liam Neeson is Professor David Stewart, the role interrupted by Natasha Richardson’s death. He’s involved with Chloe too, but in this suspenseful story, not the way you think.
