I tried watching two movies before I decided on Incendiary. I guess I just could not
find a movie that fit my mood at that time. Incendiary is entertaining but a very sad movie. It has excellent actors, Michelle Williams, Ewan McGregor, and Matthew Macfadyen.
A young beautiful woman (Williams) is trapped in an empty marriage living in an ugly apartment block in North London. Her pride and joy is her 4-year-old son. One evening in a local pub she meets and seduces the handsome journalist Jasper (Ewan McGregor). During sex in her flat with Jasper, while her son and husband are watching a soccer match, suicide bombers destroy the stadium where the match is taking place. Her husband and son are killed.
In the days that follow, she is forced to come to terms with a life alone and her own feelings of guilt and loss. Meanwhile, both the reporter and an anti-terrorist officer (Matthew McFadyen) both work at the twin goals of winning the young mother's heart...and finding out the identity of the bombers.
While this is not a great movie, it will keep your attention. If you do not like sad movies, then do watch this movie.
