Vadim Perelman's thriller shouldn't go unseen, particularly if you prefer your thrillers to be more confined and, for the most part, limited to two characters. Go to Full Review

MBI M @MNZGamerX 6h One might reasonably suspect that this propaganda movie was sponsored by the CIA as a Somali Muslim character is presented here as the voice of reason as he is kidnapped by a white leftist domestic terrorist who spouts what appears irrational drug induced views about America and its role in the world ... The movie clearly seeks to convince Muslims that America is a force for good in the world and perspectives to the contrary are the ravings of leftist extremists who have warped ideas about America and this viewpoint might also appeal to and be shared by right wing elements in America about the so called political left or anyone critical of American foreign policy... Overall, one would have to be a complete moron not to understand what is being done here and that this is a brainwashing exercise ...

Kept me glued to the screen to the end. Nice to see a simple premise done so well in a age of 200 mil+ films with many actors that don't land nearly as well.
