Reviews

Despite initial doubts based on the premise, the film builds palpable suspense as it progresses. The first act feels slow, but the tension escalates significantly, especially when the protagonist strikes back, steering the narrative in unexpected directions with well-paced momentum.

This is a film where the title alone gives away much of the ending, yet it still has its merits: a tight, straightforward plot, a concise 85-minute runtime free of filler, and gripping tension during the protagonists’ mental and physical standoff.
