“Josh” (Ben Foster), his wife “Rachel” (Cobie Smulders) and their son “Max” (William Kosovic) are eager to begin life in a new house when an accident outside sends a tire crashing through their window at a very inconvenient time. Understandably, they're shaken, and she suggests they should relocate. When it happens again, moving seems like the obvious solution, but he finds himself strangely fascinated. Not by the incidents themselves, but by how long it takes emergency services to respond, so he decides to get some training in order to be able to assist. His wife and son, along with his boss, are confused by his increasingly strange actions, which soon puts a lot at risk for him. I found the beginning engaging, and I initially believed this might showcase Foster’s finest work; however, it quickly devolved into an unpleasant display of obsession and self-centeredness, culminating in a wildly unbelievable, albeit occasionally darkly humorous, impulse to do what's right. Smulders is adequate, though her role is limited—which is probably for the best, because considering her character is meant to be a couples therapist, “Rachel” demonstrates a frustrating inability to understand her husband’s distress or their son’s requirements. Ultimately, what started as a promising concept becomes a sequence of excessively constructed poor choices linked by an improbable string of events that hurried through some universally unlikeable and underdeveloped characters, leaving me feeling unsatisfied—either wanting more or less.
