    Streamed this film on Amazon Prime (it was free) and really enjoyed it. Admittedly, this isn’t a film for the braindead sfx generation as it actually has a storyline and characters. Kirsten Dunst at her best.

    The reviews on here do seem to be quite harsh but having taking the plunge and watched the film regardless I did actually really enjoy it. Yes it is a bit slow, but the characters are good and evolve as the film goes on building to a good ending. Judge for yourself but definately worth a watch rather than avoid because of other comments.

  • Boring film

    I bought this film due to the good reviews. I have never posted a review before, but this film is really bad and I ended up playing it in the background rather than watching it. I was especially annoyed since this was an expensive rental also. Avoid!

    Sorry to say this film did nothing to keep you interested. It's genre comes under thriller. I only watched to the end because I paid for it. Yes, the acting was good, but that's about all that was good. It was far too slow.

  • Dreadful

    Slow moving and dull - poor film for such acclaimed cast.

  • Meh!

    Yeah it's ok but it never really goes anywhere. Watch the trailer- you'll see the whole movie/story in 2-3 mins!

  • Great movie
