I'm too dumbfounded to express my feelings about this masterpiece. Beautiful, disturbing, and epic come to mind. It has been too long since we have seen this kind of film-making. The director did an amazing...AMAZING...job. This film is like bringing a painting to life while the story told us horrors and sadness. The lead character rarely spoke during the 2 hours and 40 minutes yet conveyed depth that we haven't seen since Edward Scissorhands (bad comparison but you get the point). I was impressed with the level of drawn out drama and suspense without losing focus or the audience. There are few moments that didn't jive with me but overall, I was swept up by it. Dustin Hoffman did a great job with his role and provided a lightness to a rather dark movie. Great work to you, Tom & team!
It's great to see two young stars featured in this interesting and engaging thriller. Although the concept is a little "done", I think the producers overall did a good job with it. Production values are quite nice and the acting is convincing.
