Review: A horribly maligned poster design with manipulated facial features for the couple at right, making them look faded, distracting and unrealistic. Throw in corny traditionalism with the small square insets of other actors and you have an easily forgettable design.
Trailer Rating: C-

Review: As much as producers want to tie this film to John Boorman’s past successes, nothing gives it a genuine vibe that cinema enthusiasts should give it a chance. While the premise doesn’t exactly look lifeless, the trailer paints things unevenly, both tonally and emotionally.
Oscar Prospects:
None.
