It is one of those movies that leaves you confused, like a David Lynch film. It was disturbing in many ways and what a lot of people criticised as bad acting was, for me, intentional. Neve's reactions are purposely out of touch with reality and a lot is left for the viewer to guess, again, on purpose, as it all adds to the uncomfortable feeling the viewer is meant to feel. It is a psychological drama and in that respect has achieved its goal. I found it to be very disturbing to watch, because it touches on certain subjects that are real and frightening. It was everything but boring and I think that those who perceived it as such have misunderstood the feelings it was meant to convey.
