This is a cheaply-filmed movie that is competently written and directed. The plot keeps you watching but the execution leaves you wanting. You need actors who can elicit empathy from the viewer; there is little of that here. Simply put, the lead actors lack the charisma needed to involve us in an otherwise serviceable film. Worth a watch as long as your expectations are held in check. Enjoy the scenery; it's the true star of this middling venture.
