Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With almost no lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Who'll love it: Tailor-made for anyone with a complicated family (so, everyone) and anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. Family ties get tested in ways that ring true.
The mood: Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace: Character-first and patient, at 44 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off: It's in French, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
Made in 1926: an older pace and style.
Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

A pair of sisters leave the country for the city after their parents are slaughtered in a mysterious axe murder.
