It's a bit of a 'nothing' film really, one that if you try to explain the plot to someone you end up going "Um, well not a lot happened come to think of it..." A girl leaves a cult. The film chops between while she was in the cult to just after she left it - quite clever at times but also irritating. Elizabeth Olsen is faultless, reminding me of a young Vera Farmiga. It's also shot very well too. Everything apart from the story is done well, and that's where it falls down. An overly ambiguous ending coupled with a boring plot and sometimes confusing order of events. Disappointing.
