The subject matter and atmosphere, are excellent but the story is plodding and flat. It is to a degree impressive that Tim Roth is unrecognizable and credit should be given for an excellent convincing accent, which often proves to be the downfall of many an A-lister trying to do serious Drama. But therein lies the issue, there never feels like there is much serious Drama, it is a dark and brooding subject matter but it comes across as meandering and lethargic. The audio is variable, often needing subtitles as the set pieces of dialogue were often breathy or quiet.
Interesting, but did not live up to, or make the most of it's potential.
