Disappointing Crap

Rating: 4/10 (21 March 2015)

I don't buy Ben Affleck as a guy from Missouri. Also, why were the cops speaking with Southern accents but not him or others? It was filmed in Rush Limbaugh's home town, which is in Southern Missouri, but Rush does not have an accent like these cops.
Why hire a British actress to play a rich American Harvard graduate woman? I didn't buy it at all. She didn't seem American.
Why was the woman a psychopath? Why did she marry a guy she had nothing in common with? I suppose the two sex scenes were satisfactory for those who like that sort of thing.
I feel like the characters were not developed sufficiently. We just jumped into the dissatisfaction and the weird missing thing.
Tyler Perry was a breath of fresh air. He fit his role and pulled it off effortlessly.
I also think the female detective, an unknown actress I assume, did a good job as did the other unknown who played Affleck's sister.
The main problem was that I didn't understand at all, what made the two main characters get together in the first place, nor what made the woman do the crazy things she did. It all just came at you with little build-up. I also can't stand random narration.
There is one violent scene. It's way too violent for me. Truly disturbing. I didn't rent it for that. I just wanted an interesting drama set in the Heartland. It wasn't interesting, and there was nothing Heartland about it.
