Movie Review:

The movie starts with Mark Strong played John Washington's role who is a Mindscape. Mindscape is a new discovery term used for people who have special powers to experience the memories of a person. This memory reading person is used for finding criminals and for knowing the truth. The movie shows John is facing personal problems like he lost his child and his wife got dispersed. Then he not able to help his wife and she committed suicide. So this incident of his wife committing suicide always distracts John in his memory reading.

Now John is considered has not capable to handle big cases. So he is assigned the job where he has to understand the problem of a teenage girl who is refusing to eat food. Now John has to read her memory and convince her to eat food. This teenage girl role played by Taissa Farmiga as Anna Greene. Anna has considered has a high IQ and down earth girl. She has a stepfather and mother, who are enough rich. Her father dies and her mother-stepfather taking care of her.

Anna's stepfather not like Anna you able to see that with his more focus on sending Anna to a mental asylum instead of doing her treatment. Her mother loves Anna. But she was not able to become a good mother. She more focused on her work and ignored her daughter. This way Anna had a bad childhood. Also, Anna faced bullying in her college. All this experience made her start living alone. This simple looking case takes an unexpected conclusion.

The movie has a good thrill experience where you probably blame every other character as a bad person. But the ending will surely surprise you. The ending of the movie does not justify the proper reason behind doing committing the crime. It looks somewhere not believable. All actors did good acting, especially Mark Strong and Taissa Farmiga played their roles nicely. The movie has a unique and interesting storyline. Overall I belive you should watch the movie.
