An ostensible thriller that’s not very thrilling. Still, its storytelling has the same grim satisfaction that drives its heroine.

3/5

The plot is overcooked like burnt toast... Still, after watching men over 50 like Liam Neeson and Clint Eastwood kicking butt, this feels like a gamechanger. More please.

3.5/5

A potent, slow-burn crime thriller that delivers its dramatic stings with surgical precision...Solid performances throughout, this noir thriller is graced by the affecting, subdued turns from Dickey and Denis, each commanding the frame with conviction.

Gritty, strange, and refreshingly defiant, this unconventional thriller thrives on attitude.

I’ve always adored Dale Dickey and seeing her as the absolute lead of this movie was a joy. She is perfect in every aspect of portraying the title character.

Wow, this surprised me big time and I really enjoyed it. Almost a masterpiece and it's definitely worth watching. Tension and mystery with fantastic performances.

Frightening in ways you don't expect, it had us doing research to find out if what they go over in the movie was really true. Even beyond that, a solid performance by Dale Dickey as the G you really don't want to mess with.

Reminds me a bit of Rolling Thunder- gritty, dark vibe, slow burn, you're not sure it's going to end well... for anyone.

Absolutely loved this film. Dale Dickey was phenomenal. I’ve been a fan since My Name is Earl, and she doesn’t disappoint. One of the best films I’ve seen this year.

They couldn’t have made a worse movie if they had tried. Arcs that didn’t go anywhere. Action that never picked up. Boring as sucking on nails. And pretentious to boot. Save your time and skip this one
