Bad Acting and directing

I agree. Mortensen was above the material and the kid at best adequate, it's rare that you see a film with such uniformly hammy acting. As for writing-directing, there was no sense of what the film was supposed to be, just some aborted ('scuse the pun) hints at societal stagnation in a pretty setting, although it desperately wanted to be
about
something. Little surprise, then, when the film climaxes with a kid grasping at earth beside a setting sun while feebly screaming "aaaaaggggghhhhh!", that pretty much epitomises the film's message.
Dishonorable mention to the noisy, self-important score butting in whenever a point was trying to be made.
Oh whisky, leave me alone.
