Restraint

I hate those types of child demon movies, but this is one that you wish it would happen. It's boring and you just want the two adults to die horribly. A better ending would've been the little girl calling her real mom to pick her up at night. Wait till these crazy people to go to sleep and light both of them on fire. The the next scene would be her real mom picking her up, while the two goofballs burn alive.

Boring characters with no chemistry saying & doing a bunch of boring things with no rhyme or reason. No character development, background, nothing to help the viewer care or want to make sense of this. I gave it 1 star because the bland script & dialogue actually helped me fall asleep. Do yourself a favor, skip this!

Unfortunately we don't really know any of the background to the main character. They mention her going off some basic SSRI medication nothing that would be prescribed for someone completely off the rails. Could see a wealthy older man marrying a younger woman to care for the kid and be a companion after his wife smartly fled. The daughter was great and gave a very haunting performance. The main character just didn't do it for me. Her tattoo on her shoulder was a hideous distraction and I have a hard time buying her mental illness spiral. Husband was unsympathetic and his demise was expected. The music was overwhelming and used too much for effect. Overall a watchable but pretty average story.

This movie warms you up for quite a lot of it's run time. It's a good warm up, but it's slow. I think this is absolutely worth your time if you are someone who watches a lot of movies. I'm glad I watched this one. Check out my other reviews to see if your taste jives with mine.

This okay but nothing to write home about. It just drags on and on, it doesn't really hook you so that you want to see what happens next. Talk about Debbie Downers, the depressed wife is enough to bring anybody down, even the viewers. It's so slow and there is so little character development that you don't care that much what happens. Pass this by unless you want to nod out.
