I think I’ve become weary movies and series depending on nudity and sex to keep an audience’s attention, or to make up for weak writing. This movie had a premise with a mystery, which I figured out very close to the beginning, so, I watched until the end only for confirmation. Once I solved the mystery , the rest was just a lot of smoke and mirrors. Thandiwe Newton is an exceptional actor, and her performance in this was nuanced and everything you would expect from her. However, I’m not sure that is enough to recommend the movie. It takes a lot of slow twists and turns to get to where it was always heading. I give this film a 6 (fair) out of 10. [Thriller?]
