CGiii Comment

Some over-acting, some bad acting and an introduction that will disengage any potential interest you may have had - apart from the migraine-inducing sound.

Cholodenko - who seems to be a darling of the critics, she being a juror at Sundance - definitely displays the skills you need to have to wow those who 'matter' - keep it dull with excessive drug-use, have little control over your actors and mess around with the sound until it becomes unbearable.

Not worthy of the praise.
