Viewing Notes
Huh. Surprised this played the festival circuit. It’s really more like a decent DTV flick. I hesitate to call this an action movie or thriller bc there’s little of both. This is crime drama that makes little sense throughout. I do like the lead actress as the reluctant hero; she trained and put in the effort to come off convincing. Wish the screenplay had better writers bc the ingredients are there and this could’ve been something cool.
