The theme is worthy of better acting and direction, Shia LaBeouf has issues with acting and i often find the main issue is that he cannot act. It's the same expression time and time again. You could've put some hair on his head in the house scenes and you'd be back at the pitiful Disturbia (2007) - but enough about LaBeouf!
The manner in which the director put together the end, with the 'big reveal' was disorganised and sloppy. While on the subject of sloppy, you've only to look at Synapse (2015) to see another fine example of slop. If you can be bothered to look up what connects the two films then might you be filled with another sloppy 'big reveal' feeling.
The best thing about this film is Clifton Collins Jr and he didn't really have a big part, but you just get the feeling that if he playing LaBeouf's character, then it would've turned out a lot better.
