Reviews
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
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.
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
