About
You may like this if you want a bleak, high-tension hostage thriller that rarely lets up and stays mostly on the road; Not for you if you avoid harsh cruelty, sexual abuse, or nihilistic stories like The Driver.
Pros: relentless tension; gritty road thriller; strong sense of menace | Cons: extreme sexual violence; uneven acting; multiple cut/version issues
