Certainly Villenueve's most accessible film, but still a very good one.

Final rating:★★★½ - I strongly recommend you make the time.

What a powerful film and what a great acting. I just couldn't help rewinding various scenes throughout, especially when Jackman's character showed anger and frustration for either his child being abducted or having what he thought was the culprit being tortured, althoug...

Be prepared for the worst, but hope for the best. Pray for the best, but prepare for the worst.
