Rating: 1 Star

I watched this movie not sure what to expect.  It follows a man who has returned to the town where his wife was murdered.  Not for closure but to become obsessed with another man he suspects may have killed her.  This leads him into a spiral of events that leaves you wondering who the bad guy might be.

Overall, the pacing of this movie is very slow.  So slow that at times I wanted to give up on it.  I may have even drifted off to sleep a couple of times.  The story itself is not all that great making the pacing seem worse.  Then you get some random scenes interjected in random places that just don’t advance the story.  It just felt discombobulated in almost every way.
