This film approaches the themes of social anxiety and paranoia - just what is real, what has been misrepresented or forgotten...Centred around a birthday reunion at a country house. For about three quarters of the film there's a feeling of suspense and as a viewer I was waiting for some sort of revelation or reveal but it never happens. I felt the cast were all excellent and portrayed ambivalent characters but they were let down by the plot. The ending is a damp squib and totally disappointing, it had the feeling of a rushed arbitrary finish and it destroyed the promise of the rest of the film.
A bit frustrating as I feel there were great elements and it could have been a much better film with a better last 10 minutes.
