English A psychological, dense, disturbing conversational Thriller that came out of nowhere and is one of the nice surprises much like Last Stop in Yuma County. Unfortunately, I can't say too much about the film, as there's an interesting twist at the 20 minute mark that piles on more twists and turns, and it's a pleasure to see it turn into one of my favorite "horror" themes. I'll give a minor hint though, and it's a bit of a variation on the recent hit The Menu. The film mainly benefits from a mysterious and disturbing atmosphere, a decent script and an interesting location. The clever detective was excellent! It's a shame it doesn't escalate more at the end, as it was slightly encouraged to do so (if it had turned into a slasher, I might have considered the maximum rating). Of course, it's also a bit of a socially relevant satire. Don't find out anything and don't hesitate, it's good !!! 75% ()

English An interesting thriller, I didn't know what to expect from it, and as a result I was pleasantly surprised by the similar style to  The Menu. It's fairly straightforward and simple, but all the more engaging and original, the film is entertaining and doesn't let go until the end. I'm a little disappointed that there wasn’t more action towards the end, more get more gore or a bigger twist, and that nothing happened to break the film out of its monotonous flow, but otherwise it was actually entertaining enough and I wasn't bored at all. A decent average where the less you know the better. ()
