Avis à la une
You might feel a bit skeptical at the beginning and thing that there is nothing new and exciting in the story-line but wait and see and you will be surprised ! It is actually a clever movie with an unexpected end that will make you want to watch it again with another perspective. Yes, it is a low-budget movie but it definitely worth a watch
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.
By Any Means, was entertaining from beginning until the end. I didn't see the twist coming but it was very satisfying for a viewer. The film has a great cast, the acting is strong, and it is very well realized especially considering the budget. You can imagine something like this movie happening in real life. It is worth the watch without a doubt. Why not watch and try and see if you can guess what happens in the end!
This is not a ten, but its far from a 1.
The acting is not real good, you can tell most of the actors are acting, including the two main characters. Good actors seem like real people when they do their character in contrast these actors seemed like actors trying to be real people. I did think the homely black woman was a real cop though, so kudos to her for selling her character. Most of the others were adequate, they did not bring the movie down.
The real strength of the movie lies in its script, the story line. You are not given a body count, special effects or a gratuitous booby count, so a lot of modern viewers may not be that interested in this movie.
You are given an interesting movie and pretty good direction,

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!

- AnecdotesThe 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.
