A financially-struggling retired MMA fighter takes a (temp) job from a wealthy Jordanian as in-house "personal trainer" for his sisters. What she encounters there is troubling.
I thought the lead actress gave a decent performance, and overall the acting is fine. The production and cinematography is solid if unspectacular.
Unfortunately there is very little depth to the story or plot for anyone even remotely acquainted with how many women are treated in parts of the Muslim world. The main character also comes across as naive and clueless. I'm not sure the character makes for a very strong protagonist. Overall, the scope of the film is quite small - we don't get to explore much in terms of locations, or even supporting characters.
I'm not sure what our reward is for watching this, what is the takeaway? On an emotional-level, or as a character study, it is a bit unsatisfying. An okay way to spend 90 minutes but not essential viewing.
3/5 stars.

The male lead is the son of Mick Jagger and his performance is just flat-out bad, distractingy so. Pluses include Camille Rowe who is solid, there is some effectively creepy underwater photography on show and the visual team should be commended but... There's just not a whole lot on offer here aside from the above with very little by way of actual plot or story to build tension.
Even ardent horror fans should consider giving this one a miss I'm afraid.

Not enough meat on the bone for this script, seemed like a decent setup but it never really got out of the first act and failed to establish any kind of "stakes" to help ramp up the tension. Overall production values were decent and the acting fine for the most part. I suggest giving this one a miss however as even the "creepy pasta" subject-matter is unfulfilling.
