Interesting enough initially but drags out at a slug's pace repeating the same knotty conundrum for which there is no hint of explanation and no reveal in sight. You have to have the patience of a buffet to tolerate the long takes of a woman's suffering caused by who knows what. The fact that she is wearing painted-on jeans is an obvious plot device to hold the attention of approximately fifty percent of the viewing audience, contrasted with the strange scar on her forehead which was gratuitously macabre. The dreamy interactions with her annoying daughter and her imbecilic husband were shot like found footage to be even more uncomfortable to view than the rest of the movie.
Even with multiple stints was not able to get very far into this ridiculous, poorly presented focus on some unlikable idiots who don't know what they're doing and there is nothing to care about or be interested in as they deadpanishly go through the motions of illogical absurdity. Maybe some plot develops but it dragged out to long ridiculous scenes of boring mundaneness at a snails pace, while waiting, hoping for some sort of reveal but after one of the characters goes rolling around in the grass with some ducks it was all I could stand... maybe will try again after I've seen every other movie ever made or when time freezes over.
So contrived a plot with such plastic characters, only merits 2 stars for plenty of sniper shot impacts, pathetically of the good guys (and gals) as much as the bad guys (and 1 gal). Drawn out slow motion trigger pulls were very annoying, as the team gets mostly reduced to body bags. The acting is wooden, and all the would-be likable characters had the charisma of a coffee table while acting all pompous in their trumped-up roles. The screenplay is difficult to watch even with repeated fast forwarding through all the inane dialog and the ridiculous plot. Just like the missions of the protagonists were disasters, the movie itself is a flop.
