Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
