User Reviews

Perplexing plot with a few good ideas

I like some elements of this movie. It's does't take for a conventional plot which started out good but by the end I was left scratching my head. It hasn't that it was confusing but just odd. I didn't really understand why the film took this route towards the ending. It almost seemed farcical. The characters are unlikeable and unbelievable. I liked this movie for more or less the first half before it really got self absorbed into a plot I don't think worked. I will give the movie credit for trying something slightly different.
