Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Unfortunately the elaborately unspooled plot delivering these ideas in dramatic form is so scraggy and effortful it defeats the cast and rather compromises our involvement.

fresh:
A gimmicky, sad and beautifully acted mystery that keeps its secrets even when it loses its grasp of the logical.

rotten:
After a promising start, this ambitious but ultimately clunky and unwieldy movie dissolves into a pile of ideas in dire need of dramatization.

Egoyan is nothing if not low key; and as dramatic as passages are here, he keeps the tone under control and the story believable.

Bostick turns in a quietly mesmerizing performance, capturing Simon's sense of loss without slipping into pathos.
