About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a brisk, midweek thriller about wrongful conviction, pursuit, and payback, with a cat-and-mouse vibe similar to Derailed or Pacific Heights; Not for you if legal realism matters most.
Pros: entertaining fugitive-style thrills; strong lead performances; satisfying revenge drive | Cons: legal premise feels shaky; predictable story beats; unrealistic convenience moments
