Featured reviews
This movie had a lot of potential, but eventually stumbles and falls off a cliff. Starts really strong and has some solid cinematography but some of the characters' decisions will have you face palming pretty hard. It's worth watching, but not revisiting. I'll definitely keep an eye on the director, would be nice to see what he can do with a more solid plot
Well,
I didn't hate this. I also didn't love it. It was entertaining enough to watch through to the end, but I strongly agree with what others said in the sense that there are several moments where you say, "literally nobody would do that, " or, "yeah.... that's impossible. "
I guess I appreciate the idea of this movie and how it didn't take too long to get to the action. I just think this would have been better suited as a Lifetime movie than a Netflix original.

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.
1. Don't watch the trailer beforehand.
2. Emotionally, it makes sense why Julie does what she does. Something, I think, some <4 star reviewers might not have understood.
3. Listen after the screen goes black at the end.
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.
