Restless

As a first-time director, Hart has certainly shown his aptitude for evoking a strong lead performance and working in tandem with his technical team to create rhythm and tone, making me excited about what he will do next.

Restless is a spare, reasonably taut thriller of the “Neighbor from Hell” subgenre, the sort of movie most any member of Western or Eastern Civilization can relate to.

It's a film that you start desperately wanting to like, perhaps because it deceives you into believing it is something other than a violent power fantasy. As the film comes to a close, all that is left is a sour taste in your mouth.
