Giannopoulos might be inexperienced, but he’s canny with mood and unafraid to experiment with the rhythms of violence. I, for one, am keen to see what he does next.

Very spirited film, accomplishes so much with a fraction of the budget of some huge bloated expensive movie.

Very enjoyable and tense thriller. I loved the tempo of the movie and the central character Gio was very well acted. It's no classic but it delivers as a well thought out and emotionally charged thriller. Kudos to Shiloh Fernandez. Some of the scores here are ridiculous, zero is not a score so don't listen to those experts, give this movie a go, worth the admission price!

Odd though the film is and full of peculiar needle drops showcasing classic tunes that don’t especially fit the action, the whole thing looks pretty good thanks to cinematographer Sean Price Williams.

This film went nowhere! You keep thinking and wondering what the hell is going to finally be revealed, only to get to the end without so much as a trace of a plot. Terrible and an absolute waste of time. Thoroughly disappointed.

Absolute dumpster fire. I don’t think I’ve ever hated the movie more than I’ve hated this movie in my entire life. There is no plot, nothing ties together and to add insult to injury the ending ****.
