Review Time

Warning: there is flash effects/medical procedures/self harming/ritual

Storyline/Characters/Performances: these three components or four including the on screen chemistry goes hand-in-hand in one way or another; this project is based on real-life events; the pacing of the film is slow from beginning to end. The character developments, performances and on screen chemistry they are what they are; I don't want to come over as disrespectful, based on the grounds this film is based on real-life events, but the pacing of this film is as I have already said is slow, but the on-screen chemistry is as flat of the pancake so individually or together these two components are very slow. But having said that there is a little bit of good on screen chemistry between Hobbs [Mum]/Witherspoon and  Branch [Son]/Jurgensmeyer this feels natural and good.

Art: there is this auction scene; it looks very upmarket for one example this chandelier looks really expensive, this bridge and its location [rough description made from pipes or something like this] by day or night, black-and-white films elements and other bits and pieces as well; these are good.

This film receives: 4/10, this film is mixed: in short this film feels like it never gets going and if there are any fans of Colin Firth out there in Internet land he is in this film as well as Private Detective Ron Lax.
