Let's run down the key points: spooky religious fables, emotionally detached kids and distant adult relationships.

The viewing experience doesn't open itself up to something challenging and provocative. Instead the movie meanders between mundane social drama whilst attempting to insight gullible curiosity.

Predictable storytelling performed by a surprisingly good cast of actors. It's nothing that you haven't already seen before.
