Borrowed’s script and direction...turn this thriller into a beautiful character study instead of a gory and bloody horror thriller.

Rated: 8/10

It doesn’t help that there have been other, better movies that have more coherently explored the territory between grooming and loving.

Borrowed is a strong character-driven psychological drama that feels achingly personal and yet universal in themes of empathy, forgiveness, and the healing power of love.

Borrowed is a film that teaches us that no matter how good or bad we may be, we are all just damaged people looking for redemption…and in some cases redemption manifests in the most extreme ways.

Rated: 7/10
