It has its moments of very disturbing situations, and just the overall theme sets you on edge, making you want it to suddenly shift to a lighter, more comfortable tale of a married couple, BUT.. then we would a film that's predictable and honestly, boring. I have to admit that this is one film I enjoyed, even with all the unpleasantness, and there is a lot, but you get to thinking about what the director is trying to say, and that's the point isn't it? 4 stars
