It's the blurring of boundaries that makes Wildcat more than just an excruciating series of intensifying scenes of torture, disorienting for the audience as well as the characters.

Rated: 3/4

The film tips its hand a little early ... but Georgina Campbell, who won a BAFTA TV Award for Best Actress for 2014's Murdered by My Boyfriend, turns in a gripping performance.

One Guy's Opinion

While 'Wildcat' is meant to be a nerve-racking battle of wits, it remains pretty much a stolid intellectual exercise that never takes off.

Downplaying the broader sociopolitical context, the film doesn't develop the characters sufficiently to raise the emotional stakes.
