The CinePearl Take

Leigh Whannell steals the show as a reluctant mule whose nervous energy fuels the film’s relentless momentum. The directors keep the pacing brisk, never allowing the tension to dip, while John Noble provides a menacing counterpoint as the relentless detective. Beneath the action, the film probes how ordinary people get tangled in criminal webs, making it more than just a chase story.
