I thought this was pretty decent, but its been a while since I've seen it and I hardly remember anything about it outside of the first half being fairly solid, but I sort of lost interest in it towards the end. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Annabelle Wallis were good in it though and the mystery aspect was intriguing at first, but I found the villain reveal and the finale to be pretty lackluster.

They waste their talented cast and instead of something completely dramatic/menacing we get a generic drama. At first it looked like it will explore the dynamic of Fiennes Tiffin and Wallis's brother-sister dynamic to dramatic and tense finale but ends up wasting that setup. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau does well but his search is boring and felt very staged, with the reveal of villain being the most disappointing. The acting from Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Annabelle Wallis and in a small role Hero Fiennes Tiffin are good but its very dry after the first half and fails to hold interest.
