Ronald H This movie is so bereft of action and momentum, it's somnambulant. There is no soundtrack music at all, not necessarily a bad thing, except there is so little happening on the screen, the silence just amplifies the boredom. Alexia Rasmussen plays Monica, a divorced single mom living in a grocery store and living in a mouse-infested house in a depressing, gloomy rural northern town. She shares custody of her daughter with her ex and is driving an old car borrowed from her co-worker. She wants to get out and start a new life somewhere, but she can't even afford to keep the electricity on at her house, let alone run away. The outcome of this film deserves to be spoiled. But instead, I'll just say that it's violent and senseless. You will seriously regret watching this one. There's a reason it has no reviews. The unfortunate few who actually sat through it didn't think it was even worth reviewing. I'm reviewing it as a public service. Avoid this movie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
