So..i found this movie on Netflix and thought why not.I haven't see any Bella Thorne movies beside commercials for Disney before. So it probably wont be terrible? And of course I was really loving it, when I realized the "Closer" was in this movie.I'm basically in between about this movie because it seems pretty interesting when they are giving you clues to piece together. Also, it was nice seeing emotional side with the mother-daughter relationship and Hazel trying to overcoming her struggle . But, then some questions are never answered. It's really confusing. Why were they attacked? Why kidnapped that "klepto girl? What were with the water flashbacks? What was the point of the crazy guy in the desert? So, basically in the end, I am just wondering what is going on in this movie?

This film is rather confusing in the respect that a serious mental health disorder is sort of skirted over and not really addressed in an honest way. The female leads are quite interesting characters, but most of the others are a bit one dimensional and dull - and the acting isn't exactly award winning either. What seems to start as an original and interesting premise, fails to deliver as we follow an ever more bazaar set of circumstances which unfold very slowly before our eyes in what can only be described as a totally unrealistic mess. Slow, boring and at times rather confusing, this tale isn't going to be everyone's 'Cup of Tea' and if you're looking for a realistic interpretation of mental illness or the circumstances the characters find themselves in - prepare for disappointment. Personally, I had high hopes for this title and was annoyed that it missed the opportunity to deliver by a mile.

Not good. Spoiler!OK, we understand you have issues... being agoraphobic and all,.. but, as soon as you see people, you gotta tell them quickly that your mom got shot.I don't know if there are people like this. She walks slowly, yeah, OK, because she's afraid being outside.But when seeing the first real person, she acts like "Oh, look! A shirtless village idiot! Is he real or a mirage! Oh, he's real all right, and he says he's got a bike. Looks like he's stone and he's blabbering about someone named Eve. Let's entertain him and I will just limp along...Hey, waitaminute... I am not agoraphobic anymore!" Urgh... If you still want to check it out, be my guest. Don't say I didn't warn you.Unless, you have insomnia!

Without Kyra Sedgwick and Bella Thorne, this film would not be worth watching. Although it contains a fair amount of suspense, it is very hard to follow. The male characters, including Frank Grillo, stumble through the dialogue. A little more "realistic" action would have been great. I give this film a six out of ten rating because of the fantastic desert scenery, and the female cast. I would have liked for the film to go a little more in depth as far as what treatment is available for the condition that afflicted the actress Bella Thorne. Not too many people are familiar with "Agoraphobia" and how serious it can be. All being said, I would watch this film a second time, and would probably enjoy it more.
