Admirable film.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
