excelent acting kind of reminded me of the filM MISERY! kept me watching till the end😱
Solid film.... Kept me watching till the end.
Great acting and storyline. Definitely enough plot twists to keep the story interesting. I can't give it 5 stars though because the actions of the younger sister made me SO angry. It baffles me that she didn't call the police or a DOCTOR. Then she went through all the trouble in the end just to leave him alone. I get there was supposed to be a lot of symbolism there but it just pissed me off, lol.
I enjoyed this movie. It was a bit sad but overall excellent, considering the predictable movies in 2018.
This movie was so well done.
