A great movie very tense and gripping. Lots of twists and turns to keep you on your toes. All the cast were great. Nice to see Alicia Silverstone cast in something good. Benicio is excellent as always. The music really adds to the atmosphere and it has an almost Lynchian feel.

The cinematography is worth mentioning too and is very effective in creating tension and mood.

One of the better movies on Netflix I would definitely recommend it if you love a good thriller.

I wasn't sure what to expect as I've watched many poor movies on Netflix but this is definitely one of the better features it's a shame it wasn't released theatrically.

This movie is a testament to Benicio Del Toro's return to form, reminding me of his stellar performance in "Sicario." It maintains a perfect pace, is skillfully directed, and boasts impressive performances by the lead actors. The storyline is intricately developed, and while it does have some predictable moments, it offers plenty of unexpected twists and turns that kept me captivated throughout its over two-hour runtime. It's a refreshing addition to Netflix's lineup, and I eagerly anticipate more films of this genre in the future. Not sure where some of the 1 star reviews come from, but this is definitely one of the standout crime thrillers of recent times, in my view.

SLOWburning detective movie and when I say SLOWburning then I mean really SLOW. Sorry for all these capital letters, but the first hour nothing much happens and I was wondering if anything was about to happen at all. Well, fortunately it did!

The REAL suspense and thrill (only slowly yet steadily) intensifies during the second hour, which gets really creepy and intense, with a final that is like a sledgehammer. Wow. Really impressed by it.

The good: Benicio del Toro Benicio del Toro Benicio del Toro.

This man has got charisma few other actors (are lucky to) have. He really steals the show, with his very subtle acting skills, that convey so many different feelings that simply watching Benicio del Toro lifting up a small glass to drink is fascinating to watch.

Benicio del Toro co-wrote the screenplay and he co-produced this movie as well. So he had a lot of cloud. And it shows, because this is one heck of a Benicio del Toro flick.

The director made his feature movie debut, with only having made lots of music videos before and although I dont think his direction was terrific, it certainly was a masterful debut.

Quite impressed AND spooked out by it. Recommended for the art house movie fans of slowburning (yet still suspenseful) detective movies.

For those who like murder mysteries like me, this is an excellent movie. My fave shows and movies are BBC mysteries and Nordic Noir - well written and well acted productions. Certainly, for the mystery-affectionado, this is a quality production from top to bottom - acting, writing, story-line, camera work, production. Benicio Del Torro is a pleasure to watch. I feel like the story was somewhat familiar but I appreciate a movie which re-covers a certain theme but in a quality way. For those who enjoy an intelligent mystery / thriller, they will enjoy this movie. For those who want a more shoot 'em up, car chase, action-packed show, this will disappoint. Overall, I recommend to anyone who enjoys quality mystery / thriller productions.

I'm more of nostalgic in this review so I give it a 9 instead of 7.5 , but damn I miss a good crime thriller. This is exactly what I needed , after Little Things with Denzel , this one is the next one I really like. Movie is a nice mixture of 90s killer thrillers combined with likes of Training Day, so you gonna keep your seat warm trough the whole movie. Cast is more then amazing , screenplay is enjoyable with some nice twists , cinematography is also on point , dark and gritty . It's a more then 2 hour movie but you don't feel it at all , it just flows and keeps you interested . Don't believe bad reviews and enjoy this one. We need more of those in production !
