What people are saying
Updated nightlyPeople are savaging this one. Gal Gadot’s performance as the lawyer-on-the-run Maia Marten is the most frequent complaint, widely criticized for being stiff and unconvincing, which sinks the whole premise of a mother pushed to extremes. The story itself, a high-stakes kidnapping thriller, is seen as painfully unoriginal and poorly executed, with a punishingly low score. A few note Damian Lewis as The Caller is somewhat better than the rest, but that’s faint praise. Even the visuals, the highest-scoring aspect, didn’t leave much of an impression. It’s a near-unanimous pan.
