I somehow find everyone very unlikeable.

On the plus side it was good to see two fine actors (Toni Collette and Thomas Hayden Church) together in a film. It's a decent movie - the premise is that Collette's character is trying to find herself in the present while being asked to write a difficult story about someone from her past. It's not hard to see where the film is going to go and when it gets there the ending is satisfying enough. It was good to see Depp (albeit it briefly) in a dramatic role. follow me at https://IHATEBadMovies.com or facebook IHATEBadMovies

As the last monologue in the movie explains, the movie is about why revisiting your past should be done with caution. Often times our perception of the people and events of the past have been coloured to make it easier for us to live with the past. Searching out the past may not yield the results you want or, more importantly, the results you need. Toni Colette is excellent in the role. Definitely worth the watch.
