The Mad Axeman (2019)
Gripping movie

This was a very offbeat theme for me. That itself was a plus for me. Further, I couldn't help feeling sympathetic to all the 3 lead characters. Though almost all action is confined to a flat, never did I feel that the movie dragged. The actor who played the escaped felon lived up to his top billing. I wish the ending had been a bit different, but it was probably the only logically way to end the movie. I am still wondering about the motivations and the ultimate fate of the piano-playing character.
The Christmastime backdrop and the prodigal son motif felt overly sentimental but watching as I was, a few days from Christmas, I enjoyed it in a guilty fashion.
