About
You may like this if you enjoy tense, adult thrillers with a dark, stylish mood and a Hitchcock-like setup; Not for you if you want a fast, straightforward mystery or something free of sex and violence.
Pros: tense suspense; stylish thriller mood; strong performances | Cons: runs too long; some scenes drag; plot feels overblown
