The Hollywood Reporter by Jordan Mintzer
The problem with Meier’s latest, despite the strong cast and solid direction, is that it explores the tense and thorny nature of blood ties without ever delving into the psychology of it all, often leaving us in the dark as to why the characters behave the way they do.
It’s a story with a brilliant conceptual framework that never quite coalesces into a satisfying drama.
