Although this movie could have been great, the director and acting skills are just not there, To me it was just a sloppy job from each angle, both in the execution and the director ability to focus. From the start the acting is quite flat the main character named Chrissy is very slow and miserable, not to mention the bits and pieces missing as the story move along. At one point i asked myself have these folks seen a horror/thriller before? For the exception of a couple of people, they all looked amateurs taken from a kindergarten play, even this last has more life in it, than this, everyone is slow and aloof to what is happening around them, like it does not affect them. I felt like all the staff/ crew and even the director, were that catatonic not to notice how flat and apathetic.this movie was. A huge disappointment to see a good story suffer for lack of commitment, i love movies and i get angry when i see good material gone to waste. What was the point to even duing it? The only part I enjoy was about the little kid, but even there something was missing, I had to get to the end to find out about him, when he could have been introduced progressively; i just didn't know about these people and their story to make sense about them, why the girl Chrissy was involved, they did not even made it like she was concerned or intrigued by this little boy and a background story was merely revealed,she just went along with this vision and then a lousy explanation about her being a dreamer, like he father..The worst part was who the killer was and why he did it > to get a girl? Pleaase!!!Anyway by the end of the movie I just still don't get why anyone would be more upset with Kyle and break a friendship for an accident of hockey a year before, than over a little boy "murder" 5/6 years earlier committed by the same guy who was making Kyle to be this bad guy with no redemption, absolutely exaggerated IMHO. Overall i just cannot give more than 3 stars, because this movie does not deserve it for a long a shot! What a pity!
