Hey, Have You Seen ...?

What follows is a one-woman show of the highs and lows of luck, skill, and ruthless exploitation. Murray [puts] everything she has into the role. You love to despise her. You want her to win even as you realize the steep price being paid by us.

Rated: 6/10

Reeling Reviews

It is a fine job by (KimberleySue) Murray in front of the camera and (Corey) Stanton behind it. What could they do with a bigger budget?

Rated: B

Trader is a bold psychological thriller that traps us in a single room with a woman on the brink. Played with magnetic intensity by Kimberly-Sue Murray, the unnamed protagonist spirals from small-time scammer to a digital puppet master, blurring the line between genius and madness...... Directed with surgical precision, the film uses limited space and sparse dialogue to build a suffocating atmosphere of ambition, delusion, and control. It's a cerebral descent into obsession—more haunting for what it withholds than what it shows...... With its minimalist design, erratic pacing, and unsettling tone, Trader isn’t for everyone—but those willing to engage will find a haunting character study in the guise of a tech-noir thriller.....

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
