Potential But really no positive message

The idea is actually a good one. A father moves his family from NYC to the middle of nowhere in England where apparently the cost of living is much higher than even his NYC lifestyle.

His family each have there own lives (the wife works for a horse riding/experience place) kids go to a normal school they like (at least the daughter).

After the move the mother is unemployed, isolated no friends and only consolation is a horse her husband bought her. Unfortunately, it is a sick horse that dies soon and in very dramatic fashion (wife doesnt even know how to berry the horse)

The daughter rebels and wants to be left alone (maybe would also behave like this in nyc, its unknown) and makes poor life decisions.

The son has odd problems where he can be summarized as random poor skipping around the house and clearly out of place and apparently no friends as well.

For some reason for Jude law's character this is all acceptable, but he doesn't really have a goal or direction. The biggest goal seems his despair that his boss wont sell his small company to a big conglomerate. Although your left feeling that its not for altruistic reasons but because of self interest most likely in the form of a big commission and/or a big raise (rather then the bosses supposed yacht).

Other then that, he seems to be recklessly burning through money without really any end goal

His family is in despair and it seems like he doesn't know what he's doing.

Ultimately the movie (not really a spoiler) ends without anything really. The viewer is left guessing at the future of Rory and the ret of the family. A divorce seems likely but returning to NYC seems all but a certainty. But what will life be like after that?

4/10 and sole reason for the 4 is because of the potential it had in showing a useful productive story from someone who moves from NYC to England against his family wishes and realistically fails in his own goals.
