From the very first conversation between the main characters to the final scenes I was captivated. The dialogue is dense and full of meaning. Nate and Paige's back and forth was like watching a car wreck in slow motion. You always figure the next flip will be the last, but then it keeps going. I would say that this is the main reason I'm giving it a 7/10. There are no "big" special effects except for a few here and there throughout. The draw for this movie is how real and visceral the conversations/arguments are in light of the events going on around them.
Those who aren't married or who haven't been in a truly committed relationship may find the dialogue to be a bit much. But this is what relationships can become when two people start to lose respect for one another. If I could make an analogy to this, it would probably be the movie Ransom with Mel Gibson. I couldn't really get how crazy he was acting because, at the time, I had no children. But now that I do I have a whole new appreciation for that movie.
TLDR: If you love movies with dense, rich dialogue that dive head first into relationship struggles and perils, watch this. If you're looking for a popcorn shoot 'em up then wait for the next Transformers mess.
