A story about a spy and a photagrapher, in a drama (thriller).

The focus is on the two leads that are on the run from assassins. Now, the reason to why they meet and have to flee together is probably the most far fetched I've seen. Other than that the story holds up. The movie does not try to make suspense every corner but instead focus on building the characters from their dialog and actions. If you only like action and less talking, this is not the movie for you.The somewhat dorky dialog evolves as the characters warm up to each other. Some would say the dialog was boring of coarse, to me it felt more real than most other movies in the genre.A lot of story probably got cut along the making process. There were several things I felt was left out that could have lifted the story.The actors did a solid job, specially Katia Winter was really god portraying a tough skinned spy with a conscious. Simon Quaterman did a good job as the "out of his comfort zone"-wimp but were struggling at times when some purer emotions where required.I enjoyed this movie, but I probably wont see it again.

Interesting movie, but poor quality sound.

This was interesting, where it was almost a how-to or how-not-to "spy".Who and what to trust (no one!) and why.There were no real surprises, as I watch a lot of these type of movies, but I like watching women kick butt! :) What was the most disappointing in this video, is how BAD the sound was - most especially on the female lead.As she's having conversations in the same frame with other actors, THEY can be heard all right, but her sound is SO LOW!Such a poor choice, as she's doing MOST of the talking.I'd give the video a lower score JUST on this, but I don't want to rob the actors of their kudos for their efforts.The acting was pretty good, over all.

If you can cut the premise a little slack, you might find a nice little film.

Have to write to defend this... it's a perfectly decent film.Katia Winter (Natalie) is good, captivating even, and everyone else is fine where, except for the photographer, they perform calm, minimalist characters. It fits with the mood of the film, some nice contemplative scenes, and dialog that, while others have said is weak, is also fine. Bits of mundane, predictable conversation isn't so far from real life I suspect, and I think it adds to the film, to keep it 'small'.Not sure I know what cinematography really is, nor directing for that matter, but it seems relatively well put together.I would agree that the weakness is the story logic, It almost worked that there was no time spent showing how the pursuers were tracking our leads, but not quite. Even a scene or two of them just asking a shop employee or two would have been enough (there was a nice moment where the male pursuer chats to a little boy tho). But ultimately, never saying how Natalie found our photographer or why it would matter so much to our pursuers kind of gnawed at me.
