I was interested in this movie until close to the end. If this movie had progressed in any fashion in which it appeared to be going, I think I would have given it a six or seven, maybe even higher despite the low-budget feel to it.
The movie has Michael Shannon, Joel Edgerton, Kirsten Dunst, and Adam Driver, who all give very respectable performances. Ultimately, I found myself wondering if they each lost a bet to be forced into this movie. Any premise that appeared to be a possible underpinning for the details of the story, making it interesting to the viewer, turned out not to be the case. So, if you decide to watch this movie, thinking that the boy is the key to either some sort of salvation or doom, just be prepared to be extraordinarily disappointed.
