The CinePearl Take
Schumacher’s direction keeps the tension taut, letting the city itself become a character that mirrors the protagonist’s unraveling. Douglas’s portrayal is both charismatic and unsettling, making his descent feel inevitable yet shocking. The film’s pacing accelerates as the protagonist’s moral compass disintegrates, underscoring themes of alienation, economic anxiety, and the thin veneer of civility.
