The fear she has stems from her familyu0026#39;s past and her own mindset where she feels just not ready yet. But is the procedure she signed up for, devoid of negative side effects? How does it impact her and her life forms rest of the story.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis is truly an intriguing concept and there are unsettling scenes. The problem is the pace is rather too slow and despite those key scenes which do work, the film as a whole simply doesnu0026#39;t. The peer pressure to have a kid is understandable but those scenes werenu0026#39;t established properly as Ellau0026#39;s dynamics with her friends wasnu0026#39;t etched well. The same thing happens with the family and much of it is told verbally. The unsettling scenes donu0026#39;t scare. The ending however was indeed good. Needed a much tighter narrative to leave an impact.”
