As a fan of Thrillers and especially serial killer thrillers, I really enjoyed this movie. There's some bad at acting at times, the script sometimes feels like the characters are revealing their backstory out of the blue but it really isn't that forced. The film also has a predictable ending.
Taking all the bad elements out of it like the terrible score and predictable ending, it's a really good serial killer thriller that has an interesting plot and a great performance by David Tennant. The main actor is pretty good as well, the story and flow is also really well realised and the director does a great job building the situation and horror of finding someone chained up in a home.
The portrayal of the crime and the serial killer especially is what makes the film stand out against the many standard serial killer thriller movies. We aren't just given another FBI or cop movie but see the crime in the eyes of another criminal (who is relatable and we can even sympathise with his situation especially as the film progresses).
It's not a great movie, it does definitely have its problems but if you want an interesting, well-made thriller to watch on Friday night or the rest of the weekend, then I recommend it. Just make sure to keep your expectations moderate; it's really good but not trying to change the game. One of the better thrillers I've seen in a while, I give it a read the review/10.
