Rocky S Entertaining and thrilling movie that has an interesting twist about half way through. I enjoyed the bi-coastal settings in Los Angeles and New York. Not familiar with any of the actors but thought they were good. Seems like there could be a sequel- hope so. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/04/24 Full Review Lisa S Thrilling will unpredictable twists and ending with a cliffhanger. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/24/24 Full Review Katrina E All of the characters except for the baby are insufferable. There’s no one to root for honestly and it’s about 45 minutes too long. Don’t waste your time. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/18/24 Full Review Audience Member This thriller kept me guessing where the story was going next.
