There’s a couple drops of originality here and there for the genre, but overall the story doesn’t reel you in at all. The cool visual aspects are dropped very quickly, and the conveniences of the plot take you out of the movie a little. Sometimes mystery heightens a film. Often, in fact. Here it does not. Here it feels like an excuse for laziness. Also the child actor in this is bloody awful. _Final rating:★★ - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product._
