The aftertaste is intense, with an amount of gore that's on par with Raw. The romantic vibe in the first half-hour sharply contrasts with the captivity and revenge sequences that follow. It’s so immersive, it leaves you steeped in despair and oppression.

Beyond Daisy Edgar-Jones’s standout performance, the film’s style and themes feel rigid and dull. The inclusion of cannibalism in the story feels forced and formulaic.

Além da atuação de destaque de Daisy Edgar-Jones, o estilo e os temas do filme parecem rígidos e sem graça. A inclusão do canibalismo na história parece forçada e estereotipada.

O gosto residual é intenso, com uma quantidade de sangue que se equipara à de Grave. O clima romântico da primeira meia hora contrasta fortemente com as sequências de cativeiro e vingança que se seguem. É tão envolvente que deixa o espectador mergulhado no desespero e na opressão.
