Brad Pitt plays a salesman and a polar opposite of the character played by Edward Norton. The two cross paths and things begin to change from thereon. The careless and savage character played by Brad Pitt is quite convincing to the point that it does not give out the twist and holds the secret till the very end.

The narrative of the film too was something exceptional, according to many.
