Strong movie, but was the idea stolen?

The casting was well done, but in the progress of the movie I kept thinking that I had seen this one before. Then it came to my mind that the story was the story of "La sirene du Mississippi" with Belmondo and Deneuve. The producer must have a nice sense of hummer to give his film the right title then .......... Anyway, Iliked the story (again) and I always find it an entertaining pleasure to look at Jolie and Banderas and being a European it will be quite obvious that I am definitely not offended by some modest nudity as shown in this movie. This was well acted and it seems to me that the cameraman was knew very well what he was doing.

Much more was expected from this movie

Original Sin is a thriller movie directed by Michael Cristofer and stars Antonio Banderas, Angelina Jolie and Thomas Jane.Two great actors Antonio Banderas and Angelina Jolie, with an impressive plot you'd expect much more but somewhat failed to execute.Acting by both the leads were decent but the chemistry were clearly missing from both the leads, although Thomas Jane was surprisingly good. Plot could've made more intelligently and the movie start with a loophole. for instance when Luis played by Antonio had introduced himself as poor clerk how did Julia played by Angelina got to know that he is a rich man. Screenplay is unevenly paced and weakens in middle but still manages to hold the audience, climax is good and Cinematography is decent and could've been better.I have read mix to negative reviews of the movie and in my opinion the movie had the potential to become a great thriller movie but somewhat had missed the mark.
