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

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

3.0/4.0

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.
