User Reviews:
Just saw this - wow! David Oyelowo and Kate Mara deliver
powerful and nuanced performances that stayed with me long after the movie had
ended. We are taken inside a terrifying situation, based on a true story - a
woman, Ashley Smith, a recovering meth addict, is taken hostage in her own home
by Brian Nichols, who is on the run, having killed several people already. What
will he do to her? Will she get away? But there is so much more to it. Somehow
I found myself caring also about this killer. Weirdly, in this midst of this
tense situation, they develop a human connection that drew me in. There are
surprising odd details - she makes him pancakes, he helps by putting up a
mirror. Two broken lives, a terrible situation, yet somehow this is a hopeful
film. Absolutely compelling.
