The first 20 minutes of this film are great-the story is intriguing, the visuals are beautiful and the acting is good. Alas, the rest of the movie becomes slow moving, messy and a bit confusing. The pacing is the biggest culprit, after a great buildup nothing really happens until the last 15 minutes leaving long stretches of lackluster plot that truly test your attention span and patience. A good concept but unfortunate execution.
