Delivered in a muted, stilted 'Resident Evil cut-scene' monotone replete with ominous crows cawing from powerlines stretching across a desolate landscape, this "no-one believes her" thriller after Ethel Lina White's "The Wheel Spins" actually stars a man, for an interesting change, Sam Worthington, who loses his wife and daughter in a hospital but no-one there - not even the staff the man knows he and his family interacted with - says they were ever there, and it is perfectly gripping if somewhat monotone in its delivery of this well-trod So Long At The Fair fare, with an end that is genuinely a surprise, surprisingly - but an unwelcome one.
★★★☆☆
