Thriller that could have ended better
watching to the end cause i want to see if he kills this idjut!
Are we led to believe that all call center employees who work for a large bank are really THAT RICH? PRISTINE HOUSE, BMW, HOT TUB??? REALLY? I guess i went to grad school for nothing then. Now onto the ridiculousness of this. THIS IS WHAT YOU GET FOR POSTING YOUR OWN NAME ON SOCIAL MEDIA. THIS. THIS RIGHT HERE! You get people pissed off so much that they come to your house (where the police is 45 minutes away?') and terrorize you. The lack of sound when hes hitting her apparently hard enough to cause blood splattering is bizarre to say the least. The second grade play makeup used at the end is ridiculous!
Not awful
First the good news: this movie is not absolutely terrible, like so many films I find on Tubi. It's actually somewhat entertaining. The bad news is that it's yet another low budget thriller you've never heard of that Eric Roberts shows up in. It's a voice role only, but still...if I see the name Eric Roberts in an indie movie I usually won't bother to watch. Somehow, he's managed to show up in a British indie and I didn't notice before hitting play. He actually nails it in this one though, as he is capable of doing when he isn't just phoning it in for a check. The lead actress is convincing enough to make you care. The first hour is rather slow, but act three makes it almost worth it. Almost. It's a fair time passer.
