baunacholi-86159 - 30 June 2024 Unrealistic I get it. U have to produce a movie for a certain target audience. Someone people can and want to relate to, but pls don't make the main lead the DA. How about a job at a law firm for a start ? If u don't buy into the main character, what's left then? ...
The dialogue between the chained up and our hero ... well, odd. Maybe it was supposed to be tense, smart or enlightening (maybe it was considered to evoke emotions for one of the two) it most certainly had the potential for a twisted cat and mouse play. But ultimately it never panned out. The house/location is beautiful, plus one additional star for the idea of hidden dark secrets.
phd_travel - 22 December 2023 Actually a nicely done thriller I thought this was okay. I wanted to see what happened and was quite involved from the beginning. No need to analyse it too deeply. It's a thriller. Nothing stands up to detailed scrutiny. It was interesting enough to keep the mystery going.
Lily Collins is quite watchable as DA Lauren Monroe. Always lovely to look at. Her mother is played by Connie Nielsen. Elegant. Chace Crawford okays her brother running for office. When her father dies, Lily gets a key to a secret in their backyard. A man is imprisoned in a bunker by her late father. She has to unravel the mystery. Why?
I liked the twist and explanation. Made sense enough to me. At least the ending was clear and not a unfinished cliff hanger. Don't need to pick it apart by too much analysis.
The setting is a suitable Mansion in the country. Gothic in a modern way. The cast is attractive and watchable.
