That's a reasonable message, but it might feel more resonant if the script were a little fairer to both sexes.

It has all the philosophical depth of a greetings card message but it's underscored with a nasty little edge of misogyny.

What should be easily broken is a large china vase over the head of everyone involved in this profoundly creepy, yucky, and chillingly reactionary relationship drama.

The overwrought drama, cliched characters and stale story lines undermine the wholesome message and make the movie seem longer than its 99 minutes.
