Incredible and subversive of my expectations

Rating: 9/10 (1 December 2018)

This film is incredible. It's a relatively straight forward script but in no way cliche. The interesting manipulative character is made more intriguing by gyllenhal's fantastic performance. All of the acting is superb most notably gyllenhal and Riz Amed. The direction that the story goes in is very shocking at times and the few action scenes also make this film very entertaining and thrilling for someone who is just interested in having fun with this film. I appreciate how this film isn't littered with subtext and still shows that you can make a unique and interesting film without trying to force in ideas and themes
