Strong and Moving!
Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
