About
If you enjoy claustrophobic, one-location sci-fi thrillers that keep piling on questions and answers, this is a solid pick, especially if you liked The Night Eats the World; Not for you if slow builds and confined settings frustrate you.
Pros: tense ticking-clock setup; strong lead performance; twisty mystery reveals | Cons: slow early stretch; heavy sci-fi leaps; may feel predictable
