This is a well-acted but ultimately disappointing film, that leaves one too many significant plot questions unanswered. Also, at times the pacing gets painfully slow. Of course it is not necessary to resolve every issue raised in a plot,This is a well-acted but ultimately disappointing film, that leaves one too many significant plot questions unanswered.

Of course it is not necessary to resolve every issue raised in a plot, but leaving so many loose threads can be indicative of weak writing, rather than an effort to create mystery. Expand

Very interesting despite the apparent simplicity of its plot because the best of it is the background of the story and especially the criticism towards the power of suggestion and the power of belief.

However, the theme is more ambitious

However, the theme is more ambitious than the script and its climax is terrible. And although I value that a story doesn't provide all the possible answers, the lack of communication towards its ending is overwhelming.
