Our Verdict:
The film grabs you and keeps you holding on. It makes you feel that this could happen to you. Be prepared to feel uncomfortable…but unable to leave your seat.
Die film gryp jou en hou jy hou. Dit maak jy voel dat dit kan gebeur. Wees bereid om ongemaklik voel … maar nie in staat om jou plek te verlaat.
