Yes, you will remember a few of the older films when you watch this. No, there's not much more to it than you would expect after reading the synopsis. But this is a thriller with perfect craftsmanship, visually appealing and solidly acted, and it can be realistically suspenseful, which is no small feat. I honestly got so into the film in the cinema that I for a moment I toyed with the idea of giving it a full score; it's the kind of film where the immediate experience is significantly higher than when you're thinking about it. The weak point is the vaguely explained rules of "something" that I can't mention without spoilers, especially given the epilogue (very unnecessary for me).
