As another review stated, don't be fooled by the msrketing, this is not a horror film. It is a relatiinship story that explores man's place in society and the world as we know it and it's effects on us.
At first, very slow. And I did begin to wonder why Ed Harris was even in the movie. It was so slow, I almost stopped watching 3/4 the way through.
However, the "surprise" ending brought all of the pieces together for me, and then I realized I had seen a good movie.
I then thought about the "slow" beginning and realized it was designed to help the viewer actually feel the "climate" of the situation, instead of relying on dialogue to do all the work. For me, it begs to ask the viewer, "would you be brave enough to face an uncertain future in order to utilize and fulfill, fully, your basic purpose and instincts?
Some of the acting was rough around the edges, giving the movie an "Indie" feel, but I think the story is well told and worth the effort.

This is one of the most boring and weird movies i have ever watched. Nothing happens. Nothing. A couple on a boat has an argument, and the wife goes to an island. And thats it. Nothing more. Trust me. I used to respect Ed Harris, who has made some great movies in the past, as The Rock, Glen Garry Glen Ross and a whole bunch more. But seeing him in this utter trash, has altered my view on him. Avoid this movie, or waste time you will never ever get back.
This is a self indulgent mess. The best part, thankfully, was that it wasn't too long, and in fact, ends rather abruptly in my humble opinion. You're still waiting for something to happen. Alas, nothing ever does.
Are we to believe that they spend the rest of their lives on that island? At least she has her own home-grown stash - I think she was smoking most of it when they wrote this garbage.
I think Ed Harris must secretly be related to one of them , there can be no other explanation for him appearing in this drivel.
The brother put on a good show and I'm sure I recognise the sister from somewhere.
This movie, which seems to be family effort, is a good example of what to get away from.

This movie was made by somebody who knows nothing about anything. I mean, seriously. No continuity in the story line. Terrible acting. Poor Ed Harris had to be affiliated with this movie. He's normally so great. I hope he hasn't watched it. I feel like I've witnessed someone's abstract fever dream who woke up with an idea of what their dream was about but then wrote it down two days later at a bar with their friends, after a few beers and then blackmailed some producer into making it on a dare. Then, during the production of this movie, they had the novel idea of asking the whole crew for ideas for different scenes, put them into a had, and then drew the ideas at random out of this hat and refused to organize them into any sort of sensible order. If this movie ever wins a single award, I will lose all faith in the film industry.
I wanted to watch it because of Ed Harris (brilliant actor), but he has only got a very small part. That's the first real disappointment.
More bad: this movie is simply going nowhere. Supposedly a drama, but it didnt move me one bit, due to really below average acting performances by actors without any charisma.
The direction is toothless. Just bland.
Not any good then? Well, it aint terrilby bad. It's not a B-movie, they really tried to make something decent, but they utterly failed anyway...
