This was a great movie with great actors who did a fantastic job making all your feels come out. It's attention grabbing and very climactic.

I wasn't expecting so much heart in this movie (espcially as violent as it is at times.). If your under the impression modern movies are garbage, this may well encourage you. This is a fantastic movie!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

A shockingly dark and twisted coming-of-age story that maintains that tempo and tone throughout but doesn't quite hit the ending in the best possible way.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Even if this movie doesn’t achieve a great epiphany at the end of the darkest route, it offers a great showcase for Gallner in particular.

Rated: 3/4

Proves sneakily effective with its low-key approach to several kinds of violence.

A twisty-turny thriller with a phenomenal central performance by Wunmi Mosaku.

Daily Record (UK)

The climactic diner scene sums up the film as a whole; tight, tense and dialogue-heavy with two young actors wonderfully playing off each other, led by a delightfully dark Gallner.

A sinister joy ride about reclaiming the driver's seat.

Chad Byrnes

LA Weekly/Village Voice

There are simply too many scenes with Benson pointing a gun at people and yelling, “Shut the f— up!” After a while, it feels rote and rehashed in a movie that was anything but up to that point. Even with the road bumps, it’s a thrilling ride overall.
