The most positive review

I do love slow-paced thriller films and this is exactly that. Having said that, there is something that makes me uneasy about the ending. It is up to so many interpretations that the writer / director of the film didn’t know himself how to end otherwise a close-to-brilliant story with a decent acting.
Would I watch it again? Possibly. Would I make my friends watch it? I guess so.

These films may contain strong profanity, graphic sexuality, nudity, strong violence, horror, gore, and strong drug use.

An R-rated movie may have more blood, gore, drug use, nudity, or graphic sexuality than a PG-13 movie would admit.)
