Brad Coley's slow-paced thriller has a decent cast, but can't draw the viewer into its convoluted, overstuffed mystery.
Andrew Barker, Variety

A complex, engrossing mystery that holds up in repeated viewings.

Rotten
Complex and possessed of an otherworldly serenity, Frank gets too little screen time; developing his character further might have redeemed this movie.

Katharine Pushkar, New York Daily News
Rotten
A basic-cable-caliber drama in which tragic outsiders harbor obscured small-town secrets and the overconfident belief they're characters in a Eugene O'Neill play.
Aaron Hillis, Village Voice
