7/10
Enjoyable thrill ride with a human side!

Firstly I am surprised that this became a BLU release and not a theatrical release.

Regardless that my music plays at the start of the closing credits I approached this film with an open mind and some caution.

That said I was pleasantly surprised and impressed both by Mario Bellos down to earth performance and believability as well as Stephen Dorffs villain.

Unlike most movies of this genre which are more action and less script.

I felt there was a nice balance and interaction between Bello and Dorff that keep the film alive and interesting.

Yes there where some clichés, but it is a thriller and we love to hate those moments.

All in all it's a nicely shot film with realism and has a great contemporary composer on board (not me) and you really feel for the characters and their dilemma.

A great supporting cast and executed well. A good date night movie!
