Verdict:

(+) Noomi Rapace, Luke Evans, and Yvonne Strahovski actually try to flesh out their characters despite being given barely anything to work with.

(+) The premise could've led to a more rewarding watch had it been handed to a more talented technical team.

(+) The cinematography is not great, but it's not bad either.

(-) There's absolutely no attention to details in a movie in which the audience is invited to focus on them.

(-) The editing is awful.

(-) One of the main twists in the movie, revealed nearly an hour in, is shown in the trailer.

(-) The build-up to these twists is atrocious, and the reveals are even worse. There's barely any structure to the narrative.

(-) Without the film's serious tone, I would've thought that it was a parody of the psychological thriller genre. The number of clichés used is immense.

(-) It's not a complete misfire, but it's incredibly forgettable, predictable, and sloppy.

FINAL GRADE: 3/10
