Becca (Nicole Kidman) ja Howie Corbettin (Aaron Eckhart) onnellinen perheidylli romahtaa, kun heidän pieni poikansa, Danny, kuolee auto-onnettomuudessa. Dannyn vuoksi uransa hyllylle laittanut kotiäiti Becca yrittää määritellä olemassaolonsa uudestaan hyvää tarkoittavien ystävien ja sukulaisten lohdutusyritysten keskellä. Tuskallisten vaiheiden jälkeen Becca löytää lohdun erikoisesta ihmissuhteesta: hänelle kehittyy suoranainen pakkomielle teini-ikäisestä sarjakuvapiirtäjästä, Jasonista (Miles Teller), joka ajoi Dannyn päälle. Outo ystävyys saa Beccan etääntymään muistoistaan, kun Howie taas sukeltaa yhä syvemmälle menneisyyteen ja muistoihin Dannysta. Samalla Howie etsii pakopaikkaa ulkopuolisista, jotka tarjoavat hänelle jotain sellaista, mitä Becca ei kykene antamaan. Tuuliajolla ajelehtiva pariskunta tekee yllättäviä, vaarallisiakin valintoja etsiessään lohdutusta ja keinoa kavuta takaisin maanpinnalle rajun pudotuksen jälkeen. (Future film)

A very good and above all very intense drama. It’s not something for empathetic viewers, because for them it could upset their whole fragile world. Five superlatives for Kidman and Eckhart would be inadequate, but it's interesting how ideally Sandra Oh complements them in only the minimal space. At the end, I thought to myself that it's actually a very good game and it is indeed a game. I guess I've learned something after all. Formally, it had the same idea for an ending as Frankie and Johnny.

The film has a simple premise - a couple must come to terms with the loss of their young son in an accident. The subject matter is so simple that this could only stand on one thing - the performances. And they were fully utilized. I'm not saying the topic is simple, but it's not explicitly developed; it's the acting performances that make the film good.

Rabbit Hole is an uncompromisingly serious psychological drama in which even a car’s trunk lid closes with insistent slowness. While Kidman explores the hole created by the loss of her child, Eckhart tries to fill it. She deals with the past; he looks to the future. There is no present in which they would find common ground. The film’s strange aloofness and the absence of everyday intimate moments between the central couple are explained by the devastating yet hopeful ending. They spent the entire ninety minutes seeking a path to the moment captured in the final shot. This is not in any respect a groundbreaking film and Kidman previously did a superb job of playing a woman dealing with a marital crisis in Eyes Wide Shut, but there is something quite rare in Rabbit Hole – a bit of truth. 80%

Even with a luxurious cast and an exceptionally serious topic, Rabbit Hole didn't leave any deeper traces in me. As a parent, I confirm that I don't know of a worse situation than losing a child, and as a movie viewer, I argue that I know plenty of films made more inventively and with better scripts. Overall impression: 60%.
