I was into all of the twists and didn't necessarily know where it was going.

The best thing about it, purely from an actorly point of view, is Shirley Henderson's performance.

The script, by James Handel and director Matt Winn, is tightly constructed.

It has all the makings of a claustrophobic, unnerving, and darkly funny film. You spend the movie waiting for it to become that but it never does.

Collider

This misguided take on a dark comedy ultimately lacks laughs, thrills, and overall reverence for severe topics.

Rated: 5/10

Elegant and stylish ...Indira Varma makes a deep impression as the clearly troubled Jessica, even though for most of this film's very brisk running time, she's not actually alive.

Rated: 3/4

Well-cast and written, it is totally funny even though it addresses the human failings of losing what one thinks is important, possessions, and status.
