an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
