Prioritize:
To a certain extent, it has no surprise whatsoever (though, during the first couple of minutes it plays at mystery with some success, but the viewer soon begins to figure out what it will likely be about), but does it matter when it’s almost as tense as something from Greengrass? ()
It is professionally made, with a sense and ability to capture the inner drama of the protagonists, but on the other hand, it seems more like a cutout part of a larger film and one subconsciously expects it to have a more significant plot culminating in a powerful point. As a final graduate film school project, it would be awarded 5 stars, but I'm giving it a sober three. Overall impression: 55%. ()
