The superficial story is intriguing only if we are able know what the characters are thinking. Unfortunately, the basic plot line isn't expanded upon to create depth and interest. Some of the scenes are far too short - an intentional effect, I'm sure, but at the expense of the story. Things happen and we never understand why, and we are never made to care why either.
I usually don't mind the kind of movie that this one tries to be - a character study with dubious and sometimes incomprehensible motivations. But this movie never made the story compelling enough to justify its own vagueness.
