It's different...

I always like to watch something a little different and it was but it felt like it was produced as a very low budget movie and by amateurs. Karla and her dad were the only decent actors in this, the rest were awful especially the estate agent! I agree with other comments how can she use a phone and text so quickly. It made no sense who Sarah was, if she was an escort or girlfriend why was she so eager to yank Karla out with her? All of a sudden why does everyone appear out of the blue at the end including her real mum, why would they bring her mum to the crime scene it's just not realistic! Maybe they ran out of money and had to rush the ending!

Has Literally No Payoff.

First off, this film is not a horror in any conceivable facet.It's a very slow burning thriller, with practically no payoff in the end.The plot centers around a girl named Carla, who has been imprisoned in her home, by her father, who claims gangsters are out to kill them, after he testified against them in a murder trial.Really, though, Carla is just getting gaslit.There are only two other characters in the film: a detective who is trying to free her; and some random woman whose role is never clear, or explained - but claims to be her mother.The whole thing is shot from the perspective of diegetic cameras.Mostly, with a camcorder that Carla uses to film everything.Despite the fact that she has no computer. Or other such medium, to back up the files.Which makes zero sense, considering the entire film is supposed to be one she made to reveal what she went through to her actual mother.Throughout the majority of the film, you are left completely in the dark as to what is actually going n.Which leads you to expect there to be some sort of major climax at the end, that will bring everything into context.But there is quite literally no payoff.As they make no attempt to throw a twist in, that might have made it even remotely interesting.So you sit through, what can only be described as, a slow burning borefest...only for it to end with you completely disappointed.I'm actually in awe at how little effort they put into the story.Which is about as perplexing as the story itself.I'm still trying to figure out who the blonde woman was.But have no idea.I assume she was an escort or something.But who knows.Any way you look at it...this film is a complete waste of time.As it only manages to keep you engaged with the expectation of a payoff that never comes.So steer clear of this absolute stinker of a thriller.1.5 out of 10.

Slow, very slow

Yup it's slow. Was struggling not to fall asleep during the movie.I loved Mirren Mack in Sex Education and she does a fine job in this too. But there are flaws in that she doesn't know what the Internet is, yet managed to perfect using a mobile phone in no time at all.The movie is almost100% filmed on a home camera, which is a pain.Its difficult to find anything good about the film, other than Mirren Mack, plays her part well.I wouldn't say don't watch this slow moving drama but I wouldn't go out my way to see it.Just remember it's slow from start to finish but if that's your thing, give it a go.
