About

If you enjoy gritty home-invasion-style thrillers with escalating danger and a survival focus, this should hit the spot, especially if you liked The Collection; Not for you if you want a slow, mystery-heavy story or minimal violence.

Pros: tense cat-and-mouse thrills; strong performances; brisk second half | Cons: slow setup; familiar premise; some implausible moments
