A Disappointing Continuation
Stephan Hammond
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Hazel (Bella Thorne) suffers from debilitating agoraphobia. Her mother Dee (Kyra Sedgwick) takes her to a desert treatment center. She is transported in a box inside a van along with other passengers. Suddenly, the van is attacked by sibling bandits and a girl is kidnapped. In order to save her dying mother, Hazel faces her fears to find help.Not enough happens to make this thrilling. The characters are split up. They set up something but more needs to be done with it. It climaxes with a convoluted Mexican standoff. Much of it is unreasonable but mostly, it lacks tension or thrills.

I watched this movie because I stumbled upon it and thought "why not?" and let me tell you it was SO BORING. It kind of just went on and on. The scenes were dragged out and the plot was incredibly slow. And Bella Thorne disappointed me. Had it not been stated in the movie, I might not have known that she had agoraphobia -- she was scared at all the wrong points and fine at all the wrong points. On the up side, I thought Aaron Tveit and Frank Grillo were FANTASTIC, especially Aaron Tveit. I felt like he gave his character a personality that I sympathized with when the script offered so little for him to work from, and his disorder was so believable. I must say, I was incredibly impressed with his performance. I was less impressed with the movie overall.

So..i found this movie on Netflix and thought why not.I haven't see any Bella Thorne movies beside commercials for Disney before. So it probably wont be terrible? And of course I was really loving it, when I realized the "Closer" was in this movie.I'm basically in between about this movie because it seems pretty interesting when they are giving you clues to piece together. Also, it was nice seeing emotional side with the mother-daughter relationship and Hazel trying to overcoming her struggle . But, then some questions are never answered. It's really confusing. Why were they attacked? Why kidnapped that "klepto girl? What were with the water flashbacks? What was the point of the crazy guy in the desert? So, basically in the end, I am just wondering what is going on in this movie?

This film is rather confusing in the respect that a serious mental health disorder is sort of skirted over and not really addressed in an honest way. The female leads are quite interesting characters, but most of the others are a bit one dimensional and dull - and the acting isn't exactly award winning either. What seems to start as an original and interesting premise, fails to deliver as we follow an ever more bazaar set of circumstances which unfold very slowly before our eyes in what can only be described as a totally unrealistic mess. Slow, boring and at times rather confusing, this tale isn't going to be everyone's 'Cup of Tea' and if you're looking for a realistic interpretation of mental illness or the circumstances the characters find themselves in - prepare for disappointment. Personally, I had high hopes for this title and was annoyed that it missed the opportunity to deliver by a mile.
