Featured reviews
I dont know what all if these people watch that are hyper critical of this film. Because it is not boring in the least. Sure there was the typical irrational and ridiculous actions taken by the protagonists and yes you had to suspend reality at points. This isnt a high art film. But it was very entertaining. The actors did a decent job very suspenseful. Compared to the majority of films that come out I found this to be well made, acted, and written. I'm giving it an 8 because of that and it held my attention and kept me interested. The victim at the end makes an absurd decision but hey, it's a movie not a film.
Your average revenge thriller, with a few good twist and turns, drug on a little but the imagery and pay off at the end more than takes care of it so more than worth it.
I actually enjoyed this film. Loads of tense moments and fun. But it so stupid. So many plot holes, so many stupid decisions. So many time you say to yourself "that just wouldn't happen"
Acting solid. Score good. Some good experimental shots from the director. Just the sheer frustrating stupidity takes what could be a great horror film into a bit of a mess.

This actually kept my attention, where so many movies lately have ended up with me switching off.
Yes it was full of plot holes, yes it was frustrating, but at least I got those reactions. And sometimes folks, not every movie has to have an explanation or tie up neatly.
Well acted, well shot, decent story and very dark. I can name 10 movies that I've watched recently and have wasted my time. This WASN'T one of them.
Evil little psychological thriller.

Evil little psychological thriller.
I watched this without knowing what it was beforehand, initially it seemed to be a pretty poor melodrama, then it transforms into a kind of muddled, messy thriller.
I'd give it plaudits for its ability to surprise, you couldn't accuse it of being bland, I had no idea of outcome or plot. I did really like the twist in the end.
Sadly there are way more negatives then positives, the biggest, being the lack of reality. Not many people I know can fall off a cliff, get up ten minutes later and run through a forest, sadly the absurdities continue right the way through the film.
I was struck by how much Jackie seemed like a cheap rip off of Villanelle from Killing Eve.
It could have been good, but it's all been done before many times, just way better. 5/10.
