Reviews

I think it deserves more than it’s current rating of 5. This is a very tight, well directed & acted one-location thriller that can hold it’s own against thrillers that had a much larger budget. The actors in this were all fantastic especially the two leads – “Tom” and the exceptionally creepy “hitman”. I do love a well acted bad guy!! 🙂 There isn’t a lot to say about this flick. It has a fairly simple plot that isn’t tremendously original but it’s done so darn well it doesn’t matter. Could have used a bit more action and maybe more character development but it’s nevertheless well worth watching. Delightful! Far better than the eerily similar recent release “Free Fall”
