So disappointing

Rating: 2/10 (30 January 2015)

Well that's two and a half hours of my life I won't get back. Settled down to watch this film with high expectations. I love a good, clever thriller which has you guessing all the way through. This one is not. Its dreadful. Half an hour in, you realise it is meant to come across as an arty, intelligent piece all about control rather than the 'edge of the seat' thriller it is billed to be. We persevered, still thinking it may improve and half way through it picked up a little and left us thinking if the ending is good it will have been worth it. It wasn't. Loose ends all over the place, poor plot and merely acceptable acting will leave you scratching your head and still asking questions, even at the end. Mainly along the lines of 'Why did I bother?'
