I agree whole heartedly with the review that explains this as an Art Film that's interesting.....for about 20 minutes. Unfortunately, we need a reason to keep going, and they really didn't give us one. Dafoe couldn't rescue this directionless movie script and Pattison needed rescuing himself - furrowing your eyebrows every ten minutes and stink eye does not constitute acting. 2 stars for a different, albeit not enjoyable, experience.
