This is not a bad movie. Well done, effective storytelling and actors are doing their parts very nicely. The main problem I've seen in the realization is that Emily Watson and Hayden Pannettiere are very different, and it is quite confusing at first in the uneven dance of flashbacks.
Aside, the movie is boring; the story is so uninteresting and the characters are so unlikable, that I even feel bored writing about the movie.
Slow and boring movie, with boring, sad and disagreeably, dead inside, main characters, specially the Michael Taylor and his abusive father, portrayed respectively by a Ryan Reynolds very far from the fun characters he accustomed us to watch, and by an extraordinary Willem Dafoe.
If you want to feel bored, sleepy, but with a bitter taste, this is your movie.
