This film is okay. It has almost no action and relies solely on the narrative to engage the audience. Not mind-blowing, but interesting. Guy Pearce is great as always. Good cinematography as well.

The film may be slow paced but it does give an interesting thought about one's fate and how we may try to influence it. Pearce was good in the film and T.K. Simmons (HBO's OZ and Spiderman movies) gives a strong performance. If action is what you are looking for, you may be disappointed, but if you are looking for something with a thought-provoking tone to it, this is your movie.

Age 25 or under will not like. Slower pace, not an action thriller. More of a suspense/drama. I still liked it and it was worth the watch. A good plot. Kept you wondering.
