Anticipation.

Interested to see how Gabrielle Union tackles this role.

Enjoyment.

A lot of action and scheming – enjoyable if you don't think about it too much.

2

In Retrospect.

Too many unanswered questions and not enough character development.

Gabrielle Union turns the tables on her tormentors in this home invasion thriller.

Dead Man’s Wire review – watchable, but struggles to justify its existence

by Leila Latif

Gus Van Sant’s thriller based on the true story of Tony Kiritsis is compelling but offers little to an already rich subgenre.
