Gave up watching this, it's hot garbage. Really, it adds nothing to the genre...
Technically awful, corny, derivative and boring.
The director should be shot, failing that put in a one man dinghy and cast adrift in the ocean so he get get near cinema again!

''Hold on a minute--don't get up yet and leave.''
This thought seeped in after the first 5 minutes was endured.
''Give it a chance, man ''
But no, became apparent this flick was a fail. '' CLICK OFF ''
C- list actor described in the summary was in fact a bad B list actor in reality. The male antagonist, worse, hey! he might have been C- listed though.
Where the feeling of being 'gripped' was derived from, know not.
My interest was never piqued - the bored disappointment at every scene took me over and turned me off.

first of no where near a 9, what a complete load of up-voted rubbish! wish company's would stop doing this, its a 3 if that!, the acting was laughable.. movie was boring, oh and did i mention the acting? a 9.3?!? ha ha in your dreams!, that 9.3 vote is probably the film crew and director!
avoid.

I can't really add anything new to the reviews already out there but I would like to give this low budget flick a big thumbs up. The acting was strong, the characters well built up and likeable and the script was strong. I wasn't expecting there to be a twist either.
Well worth my time spent watching this little gem.. give it a go!
Firstly the story is great. I love it and it's current and valid, however the screenplay lets it down with poor dialogue and weak plot points although the decent pace helps out a lot.
The acting is like a pendulum: Burfitt and Gipson are sometimes excellent, and sometimes flat, and I blame that not on them but what i think is probably poor and inconsistent directing.
The twist at the end is great. You know one is coming but you can't know what it is and it's a good one and well written into the story. It's probably the best written and directed part.
It was very gratifying to see they resisted the temptation for lots of gratuitous nudity and sex. Nicely done. All in all a very enjoyable film.
Did you know
- TriviaThe film achieved a degree of notoriety following the real life abduction of 20-year-old British glamour model Chloe Ayling in July 2017 in Milan, Italy. 30-year-old UK-based Polish national Lukasz Herba was convicted of kidnapping Ayling in an Italian court on 11 June 2018 and in his closing statement said he was inspired by the film. A number of aspects of the case mirrored the plot of the film.
