I would give it a C

Notice: I am not a professional film critic. I wouldn't even write a review if i didn't have to.
This is a very middle of the road movie. I like a lot of what it does, and I hate a lot of what it does. There are some scenes like when Barry's therapist (or psychologist, sorry I don't know the correct term) is finding out that he might have done something wrong, it is incredibly tense. And that is because James McAvoy and Betty Buckley give fantastic performances (although McAvoy can ham it up a bit). But there are also some scenes that just fail to scare me or tense me up in the same way. This movie has an interesting "message" to it and that is the best people out there are the people who experienced a lot of hardship and pain. I like that, however the people who didn't live a hard life are portrayed as stupid and worthless. And again, in the movies eyes. Of the three girls kidnapped, two of them are portrayed as stupid and as stereotypical "millennials" (which holy Jesus bugs me), but they weren't that bad to me. They were scared, just because they are used to scary situations like our main protagonist doesn't mean they are dumb, it just means they aren't as likely to escape. But the movie really wants us to hate them. But whatever, that is a big rant. Overall, it didn't waste my time, but I wouldn't care to watch it again.
Solid C
