There are only a handful of actors currently working in the industry that I respect from the bottom of my heart. Irrespective of what sort of movies they feature in, or what kind of characters they choose to play, to tell you the truth, those things are of no importance to me.
All I seek and care about is their performances, about how 'they' perform their parts. If you're still wondering, yes, Rebecca Hall counts as one of those admired ones, and yes, she yet again gave her very best, like she always does. Moreover, she might be the only positive down here (except for Tim Roth of course, he did an amazing job as well).
While it is absolutely the truth that the film caught my attention in the initial stage because I saw Rebecca Hall's name on the cast list; that was not the only reason though, all the trailers, and the promos, all looked interesting, and they kinda compelled me to visit, so I did.
Little did I know, disappointments will await.
It is about Trauma, it is about fighting your inner monsters, and overcoming your darkest fears, I know, I did get a hold of the core idea but the execution did not work for me, it just didn't. Barring a couple of great scenes (like the ending); the drama, the conflict, and the entire presentation; literally everything fell flat, everything for some odd reason came off as inconsequential.
And I don't seem to come up with any answers on 'Why' & 'How'.
