Flawless flawed

The 2007 film "Flawless," directed by Michael Radford and starring Demi Moore and Michael Caine (yes, Ms. Moore is billed before Mr. Caine), is an engaging enough heist film, but unlike some of the diamonds involved, is not itself flawless. Diamond company executive Laura Quinn's choice to be a giver is merely tucked on at the end, which might be okay if the film makers gave up their conceit that the film is somehow about her decision. The choice needs to have been dramatized.
