A small town drama that fails to sparkle
2 January 2017 | by MattyGibbsSee all my reviews

A female bus driver makes an error of judgement that has bad consequences for those near to her.

This sounded quite promising but unfortunately it lacks any impact and just meanders along to it's desperately forgettable conclusion. I found that it was difficult at times to understand what was being said as everyone just seemed to mumble. I know it is supposed to be a character study but even those films need something to happen occasionally throughout the film. Literally nothing happens at all.

The acting is adequate but there are no stand out performances which films of this type really need to excel.

This is a drab and depressing film with only the great scenery to add any light relief. The ending is abrupt and you just wonder what was the point of it all.

This is a very disappointing film that really isn't worth watching.
