An average movie

I wasn’t sure what to expect from this movie but since it seemed to be a rather decent thriller, I wanted to check it out. As usual, I didn’t know anything about the plot and I’m pretty sure it is the best way to watch this movie. Personally, I really enjoyed the first 15 minutes when those guys were getting ready. Basically, it is a very intriguing thriller with only 3 characters and the action taking place only in one place, an apartment. I liked how simplistic the whole thing was, I thought that the directing was decent and the acting by the 3 actors (Martin Compston, Eddie Marsan , Gemma Arterton) was pretty convincing. Unfortunately, since the story was pretty basic, they felt they had to add some twists every 5 minutes and it got a little bit tiresome after a while. I mean, some of those twists were actually pretty good but some of them were rather far-fetched and after a while, it was kind of difficult to take the story seriously since you knew something drastic would happen in the next 5 following minutes. Still, in spite of its flaws, it remains an entertaining thriller and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
