Charlotte Rampling gives a stylish, strikingly uncaricatured performance, which becomes truly remarkable when, at the end, she manages to stoke our sympathy for this coolly amoral murderess. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

nick s @Nick_S 12/28/2023 This wasn't a bad movie and, but for a few patches, the acting was pretty good. I just couldn't get invested in the story. I don't know if it was the spartan music score, the lack of drama or the lack of scene cohesiveness, but I found it a chore. And the director should have invested in stunt doubles!
