Critics Consensus

A serious-minded drama that's also a propulsive thriller, Catch the Fair One anchors its powerful performances in real-life horror.

3/5

Clearly, [Wladyka] has a knack for filming crime stories, especially where they overlap with tales of exploitation and the dispossessed underclass.

This is good. This is very, very good.

“Catch the Fair One” ultimately disappoints more than it enlightens. It fails to ask not what are the means of its violence, but the effects, or even its transformative potential.

B+

The depth of the characterizations, the aura of tragic inevitability, the way in which horrible acts are made even more unsettling because they’re presented in such a matter-of-fact, non-exploitative manner…all these add up to a truly gripping [film].

Shot in upstate New York, the film’s cinematography evokes a tangible hopelessness through bleak landscapes, grey skies, dense forests, and remote dwellings.

7/10

From the start, audiences will find themselves hooked by Kaylee's journey and the fight that she's about to embark on. She's definitely tough, based on her once profession and physical appearance, but we also see so many other sides of her.

Gritty, raw yet powerful. Sheds a light on issue that’s not talked about.

I was an extra in the movie. Being a pro fighter anything violent kali portrayed naturally. Her acting was serious and on point great flick. I just found out today she's in true detective 4. I'm litterally going to get HBO max today to watch.

Gripping viewing but it's quite short and ends abruptly, which makes for a feeling of having been robbed of a proper ending. Obviously there can't always be a 'happy ending' but the ending didn't fit the build up.

A gritty and grim independent film experience that has a lot to note on the realities of human trafficking, especially the more vulnerable demographics. The film spares no time (and even seems to suggest how quickly things happen with this subject matter) transporting viewers to the waist-deep aspects of its conflict. Kali Reis gives an impressive physical performance here, and even holds her own in the more emotional scenes. Director Wladyka keeps the action grounded to the main protagonist, never letting us the viewers feel above her experiences.
