It's a pretty good thriller filled with a sprinkle of dark comedy in it that heightened its level of threat in the third act, albeit a little too dark to see what's going on.

It does hold the attention for the whole movie.

It jumps from one plot line to the next with little explanation Eventually you realise the movie is over but it hasn't really told a complete story.

The actors manage to carry the movie and keep the attention.

With a better plot, it could have been an amazing movie.

As it is, its passable and the actors are fun to watch.

The Plot is a bit far fetched The sound is ok The Photography is ok The Acting is ok

Its a passable watch 👍👎

The structuring of this movie is utterly bizarre. Almost an hour into a 90 minute movie nothing had happened. Just endless talk about nothing interesting. Was this supposed to be extreme effort put into character development, so that when the event the movie should've been about actually happens we care more? If so, it did not work.

I can handle a slow build up if it's done well. But this was basically just watching a group of adults act like no adults in the history of humanity have ever acted. Then when the event actually happens it has to be worth it for the patience you have invested, right? In this case it wasn't at all. It was just weird.

It was hard to find much to like about this one. The cast try their best to bring some life out of the script but even that mostly falls pretty flat. Not a lot to see here. 4/10.

Take four unlikable characters and put them in a house. Have nothing happen for nearly the whole movie then have someone break in. Again nothing happens. Some people get killed, the end. No suspense, no intrigue, no drama, no action, no laughs. Horrible characters, no story, superficial plot development, and blah blah blah. I found myself saying half way through, this movie sucks. Then I thought how many time have I said this then watched the rest of something? Why? Because you should at least try to watch a whole movie to judge it in it's entirety. There's no nudity, no hot chicks, no story, no plot and no action. It ultimately goes nowhere and isn't worth your time taken to view.

Another poor lockdown movie, set entirely in a country home where two couples are having an uneasy evening together. Dark secrets spill out into violence, and that's even before a "home invasion" type scenario develops. Tom Cullen and Iwan Rheon have been fine elsewhere but can do little with the boring scripting and trite psychology here, while the latter half becomes increasingly ridiculous as well as being entirely overfamiliar.
