I was really looking forward to this movie but sadly it didn't live up to expectation.
A good movie has the audience identifying/empathising/sympathising with the main actor. Unfortunately this was very hard to do with Samantha Morton.
The storyline seemed very disjointed and didn't flow as it should/could have done.
Keifer Sutherland appeared to be little more than window dressing and made me wonder why he agreed to play what appeared to be a bit part. Beautiful scenery and the acting of Tem Morrison and Cliff Curtis was about the only plus.
Maybe by being a kiwi I set the bar higher for locally made films. Maybe the change of director/ supposedly hard to work with main actor has biased my opinion.
Maybe I'm just trying to make excuses for a movie which could have been great.
A lot of maybes which still does not explain why this movie just lacked anything special.
It could have been great, it wasn't.
