Awful, Slow, Tedious.

And all of the synonyms that encompass the word "boring" in between.

This film cures insomnia. Talk about a "slow-burner." I literally spent 60 minutes out of 70 minute film waiting for something to happen. And about 5 minutes of the "culmination" which is the antithesis of remarkable or suspenseful.

Avoid at all costs if you expect to be entertained by the majority of time spent watching films you watch like I do.

I have seen some stinkers in my life, but this might be the worst film I watch in 2016.

Not a slow burn. There wasn't even an ember.

I didn't think it was a "slow burn". It was just a look into someone with a mental illness. My only problem with it really was how unlikable the characters were.
