No, it's not, so it doesn't get a pass. All the usual hackneyed, cliches associated with this plot... yes, we've seen it before, done a lot better ('The Forgiven', for a start, and the scene from Michael Clayton too, off the top of my head) - A couple coming home at night commit a hit and run, then argue about it, the man is clearly abusive and a bit drunk; visited by the local cop who is not what he seems blah blah. The stars I've given go to Olivia Bonamy, whose performance is the only redeeming feature here. When I watched the opening act of this travesty, I saw all of the traits I dislike in student films - bad acting, heavy handed direction - Avoid.
A real surprise this one. suspenseful and a little bit disturbing. also features the excellent and underrated actor anton lesser.well worth a look.
I saw the scores on here before I watched the movie and after I guess that some people just didn't get it.
I loved it. And yes, why not say how great the direction was, how beautifully shot it was and the acting was impeccable. Why not say that? It was!!
It felt a little Twin Peaks in a good way but it's clear that it was originally a play and has the pace of a play but it kept me hooked from beginning to end. It's clearly full of metaphors and allegory, so if you don't get it all then that's probably a good thing. I hate being spoon fed information and I'm more that happy to engage my brain and become immersed in the world the director wants me to go in.
More please :)

This is one of the best Thrillers i have seen in a long time.so many twists and turns even after the movie finishes still keeps me thinking.
Dont go by all the IMD stuff i have noticed if a movie is recently added the ratings are lower.after a day or 2 you get to see the true ratings.
As much as someone posts the plot and their viewes with stars etc.will never be the same for everyone..

A silly, pretentious theatrical play that has been made into a silly, pretentious movie. I guarantee that you will be bored senseless within the first 15 minutes. When some actual action finally occurs, your boredom won't be alleviated.
In addition, there are many inexplicable aspects to the story that are never explained. I suppose the writer thought he or she was being "artistic." Well, here, "artistic" means banal and uninteresting.
This is one of those films that will never make it into theaters, and I doubt if it even got much coverage on the festival circuit.
Do yourself a favor and pass this one up.
