Query: A Waste of Good Cinematography

I'd heard that this was an awesome movie, so I sat back and gave it time to become awesome. And more time. And more. In fact, I kept hoping right up until the end that it would become awesome. Sadly, it never did.This is a (depressingly) beautiful film, despite its largely grey palette. The actors gave creditable performances, especially Viggo Mortensen, whom I've not been this impressed with in any other film. The pervading sense of horror is well done.But the plot/theme--like the whole trip to the coast itself--goes absolutely nowhere. There isn't even a thematically useful sense of despair upon their arrival at...just more of the same. The uncertain deus-ex-machina ending, while *marginally* believable, also seems only marginally related, thematically, to the rest of the story. I get the sense that maybe somehow it was all *supposed* to click. But it didn't.
