About
You’ll likely enjoy this gritty, paranoid survival thriller if you like claustrophobic spy scenarios and character pressure; Not for you if you want lots of action, tighter plotting, or big surprises like Point Blank or War, Inc.
Pros: tense thriller vibe; strong lead performances; claustrophobic bunker setting | Cons: predictable/standard plot; suspense/action fall flat; plot holes and weak script
