Easily impressed connaisseurs will praise this one

Rating: 4/10 (17 February 2020)

I wanted to watch this one long time ago. I waited to find the perfect moment to fully savor it. Well, how miserable Oscar should be to elect this one as the best picture of the year. My expectations were built up to the point that I didn't have any doubts that I will like this one. Well, I can't say that it's a bad movie, can't say that it's a good one either. A little better than any mediocre thriller with a "big" reveal. It's predictable at every step. It doesn't take any risks. It's follows the formula. It was promoted as something shocking, even deranged at some degree. It's not that horrifying as "Borgman" and not that inventive as "Housebound". At the end of the day it's just a very plain and simple, but surprisingly overrated flick.
