The best and most reliable crypto recovery expert service for me ever goes to CYBER GENIE HACK PRO! Wow; these guys are so good at their job and their customer service relationship is so friendly and reliable. I made a huge error with a transaction at work, sending $68,000 worth of BTC to the wrong wallet address. Tension arose and I was literally shaking even while I searched online for a possible solution. I contacted the customer support of the wallet address provider but they said they couldn't help. I was about to pay my company money I never spent till I read something about CYBER GENIE HACK PRO Recovery services and I immediately contacted them. Because the money hadn't been withdrawn and contacted on time, they were able to retrace the transaction, and the money was credited back to the company's wallet swiftly. How would I have explained to the company I am innocent, CYBER GENIE saved my life. "http: // cybergeniehackpro (.) x y z " (+12)(5)(25)(12)(03)(91)..

This movie was so boring. Most of the movie was him sitting in a plane talking on a cell phone to various people. Don't watch it.

Daniel Radcliffe (What If, Jungle) carries this movie past it's bland storytelling

In a word: dreadful. A completely implausible plot, no tension, suspense, or thrill and therefore poor pacing, a ridiculous number of phone calls, unconvincing acting, undeveloped, generic characters, constant short flashbacks, budget CGI, blatantly fake sets/props, overly dark visuals, leading to horrible compression on streaming services, and a silly, booming soundtrack that was laughably inappropriate make this a film to avoid. It's basically a badly made mix of Locke and American Made, with no redeeming qualities.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

Prima mezz'ora a dir poco confusionaria, si capisce ben poco della trama; e anche quando diventa più comprensibile rimane comunque ai limiti del surreale. Veramente per qualche kg di droga si abbatte un drone in volo con una pistola??

"Beast of Burden" places a number of burdens on the audience, almost none of which are worth enduring.

Slant Magazine

The film's flashbacks, which are either too clipped or excessively scored, effectively step on the actors' toes.

Rated: 1.5/4

There are too many themes introduced that end up leading nowhere. [Full Review in Spanish]

Movie Talk

Strapping us into the cockpit of a single-engine plane beside pilot Daniel Radcliffe, this high-concept low-budget thriller tries to do in the air what Tom Hardy's 2013 road movie Locke did on the ground.

Rated: 2/5

Birth.Movies.Death.

Every design element is working in sync to never let us feel comfortable, creating a remarkably cramped ambiance.

Film Inquiry

A single worthy performance is held back by a substandard script, narrative structure, and just about everything else. Daniel Radcliffe is very good. The film itself, not so much.
