This movie is a classic example of "whodunnit" where a few red herrings are included and the mystery isn't resolved until the end. I enjoy this kind of movie, including this one.
The challenge is that there are at least 15 key characters to the story. Some are never seen but mentioned. A few are shown in flashbacks as well as present day. Their jobs and relationships are key to the story. It doesn't take long for it to become confusing.
I enjoyed the film enough to view it a second time with pauses in order to take notes and then refer back to them. The plot, acting and pace are solid. It's the script and/or amount of allotted that prevents it from being a really good movie.
