Cuba Gooding Jr crawls out of he gutter long enough to go for expository walks at a hotel pool, a beach, a marina, and anywhere else the Melbourne Tourism Bureau figured would make the authoritarian nightmare of a city look good. He's an FBI agent WAY out of his jurisdiction. Trying to solve the crime of a guy who fake his own death. Cuba gets to wave his gun around quite a bit. He doesn't appear to do any, you know, crime solving. Also in the picture if the guy's ''widow." She pretends to be a magazine writer. Who doesn't do much writing. Also, if Russell Crowe's younger brother or son or lookalike konks you on the head with a fire extinguisher there's a good chance you're gonna wakeup dead. G'day mate.

the title of this film is deception or absolute deception i say its absolute disaster this is only for fans of Miss Vaugier it came out in 2013. the plot:John Nelson an FBI agent tells Rebbecca Scott that her husband just died & he used fake alias & was doing some illegal things in Australia together when they investigate the mystery they find themselves in a tricky situation. the cast:Cooba Gooding Jr this man even surpasses Steven Seagal the amount of discs he has released in last 10 years shows is career,as for Emmanuelle Vaugier this lady is a decent actress but people have complained about her eyebrows & thin body shes a nice eye candy though,the rest cast is wasted except Chris Betts who played Ronald Osterberg he looked like a villain straight out of a James bond film. this is a TV move not theatrical but it fails to hit the target as a lot of forced & bad acting is involved the story is more made up for stand up comedy then serious suspense genre. overall if you are a fan of Emmanuelle Vaugier then do watch this otherwise Skipp it my rating is 3/10.

The Gold Coast in Australia looks positively gorgeous in "Absolute Deception," a film from 2013 which stars Cuba Gooding, Jr., Emmanuelle Vaugier, Ty Hungerford, and Evert McQueen. The plot is derivative, about a reporter, Rebecca Scott (Vaugier) who finds out that her dead husband, supposedly killed in a car accident two years earlier, has actually just died in Australia, living under the name Miles Archer, and married to someone else. He was about to be put into the Witness Protection Program. An accountant, he had his hand in the billion-dollar cookie jar of his new boss, a Bernie Madoff type named Osterberg. In order to avoid being killed, he was turning evidence over to the FBI. But Nelson doesn't get to him in time and sees him killed. So he's dead again. Rebecca heads for Australia to find out what happened. There she runs into Nelson, Osterberg, and an obstinate Police Inspector Hendricks. Basically they would all be happy if she would just go home. The acting is awful. Emmanuelle Vaugier is beautiful, but there is no chemistry at all between her and Gooding. Gooding does okay, but I have a feeling he just phoned it in. She definitely did. I noticed posts about her eyebrows. If you're watching a film and noticing someone's eyebrows, how into it can you be? There's a twist at the end but by then I'm afraid not many people cared. Very by the numbers, slow in spots, badly acted, and boring. But as I said, nice scenery.

Yes, If Cuba is hired by Australians it is because they have a really good plot that requires a heavy weight actor. Wow, what an Absolute Decepción (well, deception in English reads like Spanish decepción which means disappointment). It seems Cuba said... "Ok guys, I'm for the money and I wanna spend some days partying in the Gold Coast". An that's what he did! Even seconds after a terrible murder scene he is smiling along with amateur Emanuelle V. having a great time. If there is a reason why Cuba's name is today (april 2015) on the "Where are these actors now?" list is for being part in such mediocre movie like this one.

Believe me. It's just that bad. After 5 years, I thought technology of filming a car moving whilst actress appears riding in the backseat of a car, but all shot in in the studio went out w/the 1960s, but nope. Cuba looks like he was so short of money, he couldn't even show up for filming w/a shave and a haircut. The plot, characters, and acting is so bad, 2hrs of "Pawn Stars" watching Grandpa sleep at his desk is more entertaining. Horrible.

ABSOLUTE DECEPTION is another B-movie thriller from director Brian Trenchard-Smith, a man responsible for some great and some not-so-great films over the years. This is one of his better movies, a fast-paced story of corruption and murder and the crusading efforts of a couple of small fry to bring down the big bad guys. The film is set in Australia, of course, and features a gorgeous lead actress in the form of Emmanuelle Vaugier, who also delivers a pretty good performance to boot. Cuba Gooding Jr. hangs around the scenes too but has a very limited character although he handles himself well in the action stakes. Speaking of action, there's plenty of it here and it has a decent Bourne-style hard edge mixed with some of the old-fashioned stunts that Trenchard-Smith has always enjoyed inserting into his movies. Although the story is nothing special the bright and colourful cinematography makes this a fine-looking thriller and a film I enjoyed throughout.

Thought a 1 was a bit harsh, it's a watchable film, with a mystery to it.

As i said,the plot is very boring. It lacks realism and a lot of things happened because they had to make them work ignoring the cheesiness of that. One reporter and one special agent kept getting in locked crime scenes like a charm doing what they wanted to do. Poor acting,terrible special effects bypassed events(she found someone outside from her hotel room and the other morning she met the detective without saying a thing about that). The only good thing from this movie,was the great cinematography. IT WAS TERRIBLE!!! Don't waste your time like i did. If i could i would give this movie 0 stars!!!

There were 16 reviews for this film and I read them all. They all have valid points, and I thought the 4.2 rating was fair as well. The opening credits immediately told me that this was a film with a limited budget, although I hoped for better with one famous actor starring. I soon got engrossed with the film and lost my low-budget reservations. There were a few little continuity issues. But overall, not too bad.

This was playing commercial-free on HDNet. I was playing with the phone anyway and then I took a nap. Nice scenery and pretty actress, but that's it. Mercifully the ending credits seemed to come up fast. Unfortunately I am done with this review, but I am still required to add several hundred more characters or I can't post this thing. So here's a story: I almost got run over by the Oscar Meyer Weinermobile. It was the late 80s and I was a dumb college student who was jaywalking across a busy two lane street. I could see that a vehicle was approaching at high speed, but I knew I could easily make it across. Half-way across I froze like a deer because I couldn't believe that I was about to get flattened by a speeding hot dog. Luckily, I came to my senses and made it across. We'll that was fun and now I can finally post this thing.
