About

If you like claustrophobic, slow-burn whodunits in harsh winter settings like Wind River, you may enjoy this, but Not for you if you dislike long, dialogue-driven suspense or are sensitive to profane and graphic violence.

Pros: tense cabin mystery; sharp witty dialogue; strong ensemble | Cons: long talking-heavy pacing; profane/graphic content; mixed payoff
