“Ashgrove” (** out of four) was an overly bland and mild suspense melodrama set in the not-too-distant future in which the title scientist (Amanda Brugel) is struggling to find a cure for a worldwide pandemic; frustrated, she retreats to the countryside with her husband (Jonas Chernick) and soon finds that her ability to find the cure hinges on their relationship and whether they stay together or not. Interesting plot elements with obvious allusions to the current world are dissipated by film’s aloofness and cloudy feel. Brugel is solid in the lead; she also co-wrote and co-produced.
