Okay, but could have been so much more...

As others have already pointed out, this is a slow-moving film. Although sometimes the slowness underscores her separation from the action that is going on off screen, and her isolation from knowing what is happening, there are also too many scenes that are just plain slow for no reason.

I felt the film was missing a storyline. We are let in on a personal back story, but we are never caught up on why the drama is taking place off screen of which we only see snippets and know very little. Sometimes that approach to storytelling works, like with Cloverfield, but in this case you just feel left out.

A worse problem is that it's unclear how she keeps being found... Without giving up any spoilers, let's just say that Sherlock Holmes would have had a hard time finding her...

Annoyingly, this takes place in the 1970s - I am guessing about 1975, but it never lets you know exactly when, and it's hard to tell from the costuming which is all over the place. I watched it to the end, but it wasn't very satisfying.
